Generosity at Lambton, and a Happy New Year

Welcome back Students! Also Parents. Also staff.

I hope everyone had a restful break, I'm sure all the Lambton households are full of children begging for the start of school to come again. Well beg no more!

I'd like to start off the New Year by thanking our community. In our Grade 4 class, we always talk about ways to help our fellow Canadians, both in and outside the neighborhood. We were proven right by our parents and family communities many times over.
Our Stonegate family received two of the fullest baskets in the school, stuffed with necessities, treats, not to mention the gift cards and holiday spirit. I feel truly lucky to have such wonderful examples to guide my students, and am inspired by your generosity inside and outside the classroom.

We are excited to share our holiday adventures when we all meet up again in the classroom, and there will be a lot of showing and telling in store, I'm sure. We will also make some New Year Resolutions, (I'm sure the parents will be more than interested in the goals set by their children.)

We will also be starting to build towards our school-wide inquiry fair next month. Grade 4s will be directing their next big science projects about animals and their habitats with their own questions, and researching the answers. Big questions, little questions, all guiding us to investigate the important answers that make an informative projects. It's going to be very exciting, and I look forward to some very proud faces very soon.
