Grade 5/6 @jrcallwood students enjoyed the sunshine today while helping our JK/SKs read the Storytime trail kit “On The Trapline” borrowed from @TVDSB resource services. #readingengagement #readingbuddies #futureleaders

And the winner is… Please Don’t Read This Book! After a month of reading and voting our new @jrcallwood book edged out an old favourite to take the title of #MarchMadness 2023 picture book of the year!

We had an exciting visit with Mrs.Thomson in the library. We got to code BeeBots! We had time to code them as a group but ran out of time to code them ourselves. The students were amazing, they were quiet and listened well! Thank you so much @MrsThomson284 @jrcallwood
