Last Day of grade 3, 2017

June 29th, 2017

Wow!  Time flies when you're having fun!  It's hard to believe we just celebrated our last day of grade 3. What a year.  Thank you for all of the fun grade 3s!  Have a wonderful summer and all the best in grade 4.

Here are the pictures of our last day ice cream social.  The last day tradition!  This year the French Immersion Grade 3 classes joined us too, so fun!

Thank you to all of the parents for your help with supplies and for scooping ice cream!

Alberta Science Network & Building

We were lucky to have the Alberta Science Network back again.  This time Ms. Natallia talked to us about her career as an Engineer and all about building and testing materials.  She had an awesome hands-on activity for us too.  Each group built a crane out of popsicle sticks as well as a few other supplies, and at the end, we tested the cranes for strength and stability.

Field Day!

Thank you to all of the volunteers that came to run the stations for us!  We had fun.  The highlight is always the fire hose spray down at the end!  I love this tradition!

You can watch the live video of the firehose spray on the Mountview Facebook page.  It's so fun!
