December 15th Update
Thank you for joining us for our Winter Solstice event. The performances in the gym and craft & activities around the school kept our school community busy. We hope you enjoyed the time with your family and mingling with other Montessori families. We are grateful for the overwhelming support of the Pet Treats initiative. Grade 1 and 2 students were busy baking, bagging, and advertising. All proceeds are going to the Calgary Humane Society. Students will continue to learn about how this organization supports our city. We are grateful for your participation and support. In addition, thank you for your contributions to the Calgary Food Bank.
Gratitude
The December Montessori tenet is Gratitude. December is a great month to reflect on all we are grateful for. At our winter event, families contributed to the mitten tree with messages of what they are grateful for. Our forest of trees is overflowing with wonderful messages.
