Dear Parents,

I want to express my sincere gratitude to all my Grade 2 parents who helped in doing the project “Exploring the Continents.”  The children were enthused and showed great interest in researching and learning about the continents they selected.  Overall, the projects were well done and researched.  Information gained will be lifetime knowledge to keep. 

Special thanks to all you parents who came to the Oral Presentation.  I am sure you left with more information about each continent than you came with.  Thanks again.  Also many thanks to our principal, Dr. Cross who left her busy office to be with us during this time.

A very big thank you to the students of Grade 2, your Oral Presentations were exceptional done, well researched and much learned.  I am extremely proud of you.  Well done guys.

Thanks again.

Audrey
