Terry Fox Walk

Today we took part in the Terry Fox National School Run Day. Grade 1 to 4 students from EMU walked to Wayoata School where Terry Fox attended for grades 2 and 3. We've been having class discussions about Terry Fox and students have shared their own personal stories of family members or friends who have or have had cancer. Thank you to all the parent volunteers your help was greatly appreciated.

Peace Day Walk

Today we participated in the Peace Day Walk at The Forks. For the first outing of the year I was impressed at how well behaved everyone was. We took a walk around the museum, we listened to some speeches, we exchanged our peace message with a student from another school and we sang and danced along with entertainer Jacques Chenier. Here's a few student reviews: Kiya: It was awesome! Lance: It was an experience I was glad to have. Thomas: It was the best walk in the world.
