I very much admire @elonmusk as the man is a true technology visionary but I vehemently disagree with his views on free speech. Society must be protected, not torn down.

[Michael Fitz-Gerald @michaelfitzg]

Well cheers and celebrations for the purveyors of hatred, misinformation, harassment and lies, your white knight @elonmusk has arrived; very soon you will be set free again. A sad day today as free speech should not mean allowing a free pass for the vile spewers of hatred.

The Gr 6 are testing their newly created board games! They designed and created their games in the first unit. Next up is Adobe Illustrator. #MYPDesign, #Isnsarts #goisns

I’ve seen a lot of blueprints over the years but these are the finest I have ever seen from Grade 6! Definitely an exemplar to keep! #GoISNS #isnsarts #MYPDesign.

Grade 6 students sanding their projects. They learned how to create vectors in illustrator earlier so the next step is laser engraving!
