Book Fair & Book Week Celebration

Friday is the final day for the book fair, which will be open from 9:00-12:00 in front of the library. Parents are welcome to come to the book fair!

We will also have an outdoor Book Week Celebration from 9:00-9:30 on Friday which parents and older students are welcome to attend. We will have a character book parade (Friday is “Dress up like a character from a book”), student names will be drawn for prizes, and I will announce the winner of the Panda Tournament of Books. The Celebration will be held on the cement outside of the library entrance.

X-Block Project Changes

Hello X-Blockers

Next Tuesday is a really good opportunity to finalise your last X-Block project for the year.

Thursday, April 22 (two weeks after Spring Break) will be the last date to change your project or location. No changes will happen after this date.

As of next Tuesday, the kitchen will be ready for 6 new cooks and the music room has space for a few more musicians or people that don’t need any special equipment. Please email Mr Synder if you would like to cook.

Happy choosing.

Calling all X-Block Artists and Designers.

After Spring Break we are hoping to schedule a mini-art exhibition of all your best works for the year – photos, ceramic, crafts, paintings, drawings…

Please choose one or two pieces of which you are really proud to bring to X-Block next Tuesday or have ready to print so we can begin to plan our space options.

Looking forward to a showcase of your talents.
