Decemeber at Westwood

Sinter Klaas has come and gone and we are all excited about Christmas coming. Did you have time off school? We have two more weeks of school. Our school days will be filled with children perfoming for us. Our school choirs will be singing us christmas and holiday songs, classes will be performing . The best is when the kinders ( age 4&5) sing a little song. They are always funny as they forget the words and wave to their parents or cry. We will have an evening concert for family and friends to join in the fun.
It has finally started to snow here. We have a very light blanket of snow. Not enough to sled on yet. Ask Ms Scholtens about her first day sledding here at Westwood. She had on a little jacket and little fashion boots. She was very cold.
In class we are reading the Narnia Chronicles, the gr 5 's are reading The Lion, the Witch and The Wardrobe.The Gr 6's are eading Prince Caspian. We are really enjoying it.  Before our holidays we will watch the movies. Have you read any of these books?
We will send pictures soon.

    I told you Mr.Small that you shoulden't go to England and teach there. But no never listen to a kid just an adult.So now are you happy teaching there.If you said no then we will come to the airport and pick you up but if you said yes then you have been brain washed by those kids those kids of yours.Mr.Small do you know that it's not even snowing it's just sunny you might want to come here for christmas ok.Well bye and best wishes to you and your family and a happy new year.So write me back.Elmo said peace out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  11. Merry Christmas. Thanks for remembering me and mentioning my name! Hello Miranda. I hope you had a great Christmas! What presents did you get?

    The other person that posted forgot to leave their name. Although I do have some ideas on who it could be. Unfortunately, I am not teaching at the school I was before. I left at Christmas and am currently looking for another job. It was a learning experience, but very difficult. Did you have a great holiday?

    It snowed a little bit for one day here, but other than that there has been nothing. I miss the snow. It didn't really feel like Christmas.

    Over the holidays my parents came to visit and we went to Paris, France for Christmas Eve until boxing day. It was only a two hour train ride from London, England. The train goes in a tunnel right under the English Channel! The Eiffel Tower was beautiful at night and we got to see it light up while we were on a big Ferris Wheel.

    We also went to a city called Cambridge in England where there is a very famous University. It is a very old city which has some really neat buildings and lots of money!

    Then we stayed in London, England for New Years and watched the fire works. The fire works were right across the river Thames from Big Ben and Westminster Palace. They even shot off the London Eye which is the second biggest Ferris Wheel in the world! Unfortunately, the weather wasn't too good so it was hard to see at times. It was still very fun!

    Let me know about your holidays and have Mrs. Sproat let you research some of the places I was if you have time. I will add some pictures to the blog soon.

    I almost forgot! Hi, Sarah. I am glad you are getting to see your sister again. I remember you talking about her last year.

    Mr. Small
