Think your child might love gymnastics? Here's some community information you may be interested in :)

For the first time in a number of years Canmore Illusions Gymnastics is providing a boys gymnastics class so boys can participate locally instead of having to leave the Bow Valley for this opportunity.  

There are only a few spots are left! It's on Thursdays for May & June and costs $160. 

The Great Egg-periment!   I heard great scientific understanding being shared and discussed while everyone worked through the steps with their eggs. Discovering displaced volume, changes in density and finding neutral buoyancy using eggs and water.  What happens as the water gets saltier?

Today we went up to ERS to be leaders for our grade 2 buddy class.  We built solar ovens together and then practiced some fire starting skills so we could toast some marshmallows.  Though the weather didn't give us a lot of solar energy (so we left the ovens with the grade 2s to try out later) we had a great time!

Most of our class talked about how positive, fun and helpful their grade 2 buddies were!  Other students highlighted how excited their buddies were when they got a spark while using the flint and steel. Everyone talked about the smiles, fun and celebrations for when each other showed success, or gave their best try :)

We also found some great connections, like Kinsley who was paired with a buddy that also loves pepperoni pizza.
