Reminder... Monday October 14th - Thanksgiving (No school) Thursday October 17th - EDC Parent/Teacher Conferences (No classes for EDC) We had a spectacular week in EDC! We had lots of fun painting pumpkins with paint brushes, sponges and even our hands! We decorated haunted houses with stickers, markers and bingo dabbers! The students had so much fun cooking up a storm in the Witch's Kitchen! We used ingredients such as slimy frogs, slippery snakes and crawly spiders in our witch's brew! We rolled and cut out pumpkins at our play dough centre.
