Appreciate the invite to @LakeheadSchools Grade 7&8 Carnavale, where students from @LPS_ElsieMacG @LPS_EGM and @LPS_CEG came together for food, dancing and goodwill, all in the name of French Language! Merci a tous! #LPStb #tbay #frenchimmersion

Fortunate to play "Trios" with Jonathan today @ Vance Chapman, a great way to practice our squares multiplication facts. The most honest kid I've seen play a competitive game. A final roll of 4 ("4x4 is 16") scored him a big 35 points to tie it up. #everyonecandomath #LPStb #tbay

Been off the "X" for awhile, technical difficulties. Also spending lots of time in classrooms seeing kids doing some great work in math. #LPStb #everyonecandomath #tbay

#WorldTeachersDay2023 is a day not just to recognize your child(ren)'s teachers, but to reflect on the impact teachers have had on our own lives. I'm grateful to work with incredible teachers @LakeheadSchools who impact kids just like Mr Marentette did for me. #LPStb #tbay
