Greetings from Guelph
Well we are on our second last day of our big test, that help rank our students and school. We have been writing our test for 6 days for 100 min per day.  2 sections of math and 4 sections of reading and writing. It has not been too hard. Some of the  math questions were challenging,but we like a challenge. The weather has been spectacular!!!!!! Sunny and warm even hot for weeks. We have had our track and field races and soon we will compete against other schools in races and jumping.  We are madly trying to learn as much as we can before we leave our grade to get ready for our next year. We hope you are having a lovely spring and had a joyous time at your teacher's wedding!!!!!!

April In Guelph

We just spent the last 3 days at an outdoor center not far from our school. The program was called Earthkeepers. The camp is called Camp Edgewood. There are cabins in the woods, streams, meadows and many paths leading through the forest. We had a  lot of fun with each other and another class. Only 14 other classes from the whole area get to go to this beautiful spot. We will send pictures once we get them uploaded..We learned many things about the earth and how to keep it running and how to preserve it.

Happy Spring

We have had a crazy month here in Guelph! At the beginning of the month we were able to build snowmen and play in the snow. By the end of the month we were wearing shorts and playing outside in a warm 20+ degrees. We had our spring break as well. We take a week to holiday or stay at home and play. We all did different things. The children are in their last term in school. They will stay here in this school for 2 or 3 more years. Then they go off to high school. They dont write one big test. How well they do in elementary school allows them to choose where they will go to high school. We love hearing from you. Send pictures

Happy February

Greetings to the Nederlands from Guelph!
It has been a long time since we last wrote. Thank you Estelle for writing to us. I heard from your teacher you have just completed your big test. The grade Sixes in our class will also write a 3 day test in May. This is to see how they have progressed since Grade Three. The test helps the teachers know in what areas the children need help. It does not count for anything but information for the teachers. I told the children that your test helps the teachers decide where you should go to high school. Is that right? I am sending you a few pictures of the kids sewing pillows. They sewed pillows so that when they sit on the floor it is more comfortable. We still have no snow . It is very sad for us. We have only been sledding one time. Looking forward to hearing from you.xxx
