What a week!

This week has been quite busy here at Grace Christian School. 

I'm not sure if it was truely busy or if it just seemed that way as many things were packed into a short week :)

It all began with Valentines Day on tuesday. The kids in every grade were so excited to hand out cards and candies to fellow classmates and teachers. 

 "This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you" John 15:12

 On February 15, 1965 our national flag was raised for the first time on Parliament Hill. in 1996 Parliament declared February 15th as National Flag Day. This year the National Flag of Canada is celebrating its 52nd anniversary. We joined in the celebration on Wednesday by dressing in red & white.  

  It was a sea of red & white! 

Thursday was a day that the grade 1 kids have been looking forward to since the start of school. From the first day of school the grade 1 kids count the days they have been at school. When they hit 100, they are 100 days smarter and that calls for a party! Instantly they are transformed from 6 yr olds into 100 yr olds. This day is also fun for the rest of the school as well. Each grade gets a chance to visit the grade 1 room and help them with with a fun activity.
