Springtime is Finally Here!

It has been a while since we last wrote, and as you can imagine, a lot has happened!

As you know, we went to the Kortright Centre in March to celebrate the beginning of spring and to learn how maple syrup is made.  Despite the non-spring-like weather that day, we enjoyed ourselves.
Learning how to identify maple trees when there are no leaves
That's a lot of sap!















Enjoying a tasty treat!
Back at school, we celebrated the end of our dinosaur study by having pancakes with maple syrup.  We have a number of students who enjoy cooking, and they did a great job making the pancakes!


Every celebration deserves a crown!














Ruth Ohi Visits Nellie McClung Public School!

In April, we had a visit from the author and illustrator, Ruth Ohi.   Ms. Ohi spent an hour with the Kindergarten classes, and she told us how she writes and illustrates her books.  We left with a better understanding of the writing process, and many students were inspired to write their own books!
Here are some the books that Ms Ohi has written and illustrated.
