The children will need sunscreen (applied at home), a hat, a water bottle and walking shoes (no flip flops or sandals). Those students in our class who are participating in the biking club will bike after school on June 13th and the rain date is June 20th.

To promote physical activity, the Wellness Committee has purchased some bicycles.  We will be starting a Grade One Bicycle Club to run every Thursday from 2:00 – 3:00.  Interested students can fill out the form below and send it in to their homeroom teacher.  Each student will need to bring their own bicycle helmet and be able to already ride a bike because the bicycles here do not have training wheels.  In the beginning, we will be riding the bikes in the gym and on the playground. Each K-2 student has seen the bicycle safety video in gym class so after we are comfortable as a group, we will be hitting the trails.  Once we have all forms returned, a schedule will be set up and sent home with your child so they know what day they will be going.  Because we only have 5 bikes, we can only take 5 students at a time.  Parents are responsible to pick up their child at 3:00 at the office entrance. (Forms will be sent home on Thur. May 16th)

I give my child ____________________________ permission to participate in the noon hour walks in conjunction with the Go for 42 Walk Program.  The students will be supervised on these walks.  Students will be leaving the school grounds for these walks on Monday’s, Wednesday’s and Friday’s.  Parents are encouraged to join us as we will be leaving the school playground at approximately 12:05.  Walks are about 15 minutes long.  All forms must be returned by Friday, May 17th.  No late forms accepted after Friday.

Happy Mother’s Day to all the special ladies in our lives. Have a wonderful day from Mr. Williston’s Grade One class.
Mango Mania is back again this month with Go for 42. For the next 5 weeks there will be posts on this website giving you information about being physically active, nourishing your body to enable it to keep active and encouraging students to participate in the Go for 42 challenge at school. Won’t you join us for the Mango Kids Fun Run on Sunday June 23rd, 2013 at the Lindon Recreation Center, Miramichi?      Did you know that being physically active for at least 60 minutes a day will:  Help you grow stronger, improve your health and fitness, and Help you do better in school. There are 3 types of physical activity: 1. Endurance activities such as running, swimming, and jumping help strengthen the   heart and lungs. 2. Flexibility activities such as gymnastics and dancing help improve your ability to bend,     stretch, and reach. 3. Strength building activities such as climbing or swinging across the playground ladder help build strong muscles and bones.       Some of the many ways kids can stay physically active are by walking to school, playing sports, riding their bicycle, and playing outside with friends.
