Andy Visits

....We are watching Andy as he is performing!!

Andy is playing his guitar as he sings a song!!




Our teacher Mr.Murphy playing the harmonika.






Andy and Mr.Murphy playing the guitar together!!!

We thought that the performance(Mr.Murphy and Andy ) did a FANTASTIC job on the stories about each song. They go back to the 1950 's to the 1960's. The stories were interesting to hear and the songs were interesting to listen to! Also they sang songs from Elvis and the Beatles.that was cool by Mackenzie & Taylor

Boys Soccer

It was a cold damp morning. The boys soccer team were crazy exited in the gym. We loaded up in our army of cars. We loaded out of are cars we had 5 minutes to worry about are 1st game against bayside 2. That wasn't the team we were worried about. The team was . . . anyway this team looked easy but the truth was we tied. We were in trouble we had to win the next 2 teams to make it to the semi finals. But we had a 40 minute break so we rested and started getting bored but luckily our next team wasnt much of a threat. It was S.M.B. we beat them 5-0. then we beat Albert College and we cheered like howling dogs. At the semi finals it was a breeze. we won by 6-0. this time we were cheering so much we could of died. Then was the team we were worrying about Bayside 1. Nobody has gotten a goal for 2 years on them. we lost 6-1 but that was not bad at least we got a goal. We got ribbons for 2 place. We weren't tired but happy and showed off to the girls that we beat them. I hope you liked it. The end.

Centenial Productions

On Friday October 15th 2010 our grades 5 and 6 traveled over to Centenial Secondary School to see a dance inspired by traditional and culteral dances. The performances are from eastern and centeral asia. When the performmance was done instead of clapping you clap and say HASSA.

Our opinions are that we didn't think that, that type of dance was the type of danceing that we would perfer to watch or do on a daily basis. In some parts we enjoyed but some other points were not as interesting as we thought they would be.

Other than that we enjoyed the beat of the drum and the sound of the music.

October News

It is hard to believe that we have already had one month of school. During September we celebrated 3 birthdays, 1 spirit day, 1 assembly and the Terry Fox Run.
October will be just as busy now that we are in the swing of things. We have 4 birthdays this month! It is also in October that students on school soccer teams will compete, as well as celebrating Thanksgiving. The 18th is Photo Day and the 29th is a Celebration Assembly. Our spirit day in October will be Orange and Black day. This year SJAM’s Scholastic book fair will take place from October 26th to 29th. October 25th is an NI Day and I am sure none of our children will let us forget that October 31st is Halloween. It falls on a Sunday this year.
We continue our learning all day in every aspect of what we do. We continue to encourage students to read nightly for pleasure and to review their school work as needed at home.
We have been very impressed with our students’ artistic abilities. The results of their pastels on black drawing assignments were amazing and their enthusiasm for music has brought a creative energy to our classroom which is contagious and fosters a warm, inviting learning environment. In science we are studying the human body and learning new vocabulary and functions of our own bodies each class.
Good communication continues to be a goal for us, so please use the agenda as needed and we will do the same.
October book orders will be sent home shortly. If you wish to order, please return your order with cheques payable to Scholastic by October 20th.
