Halloween and Health
ESL Teacher Zhanna Kuleshova submitted these photos presenting Primary School Halloween and health activities. Our Halloween festivities throughout the school were enjoyed by all. In some cases, it was the first time that students had the opportunity to enjoy the Halloween holiday, and they loved it!

Students Practice Advertising
8th grade students revealed their aptitude for creativity. They designed and presented flyers advertising various products, from comfortable houses and furniture to make-up. They were so persuasive that I wanted to buy some of the products myself.

Grade 2 Class Prepares for Nat’l Day
Ms. Gaviola, kindergarten and primary ESL teacher, snapped some photos of her 2nd graders that she wants to share. She explains:
I took some pictures of the children doing flag crafts in celebration of national day. These are grade 2 children and after they had completed the craft they were off happily marching and singing with paper flags waving up high. The flag craft was done in grades 1-3 classes.
