We hope everyone had a Chag Sameach and a lovely weekend!! Did you know that SK performed in the Shavuot assembly last Thursday?? Their Grade 5 Reading Buddies taught them a Shavuot song and dance over our last few meetings and they performed it together. Here’s a video of the performance:
The chag may be over, but you can still try out the yummy recipes we collected for our OJCS Shavuot Recipe Book at home!!
We also had another special treat last Thursday…. no, not the yummy Menchie’s (although that was special too!!), but Amelia and Isadora’s aunt Melanie, who was visiting from New York, treated the JK, SK and Grade 1 classes to a special performance of her show “Opera Mouse”!! The kids absolutely loved the singing and the puppets. A huge thank you to Melanie for sharing her talents with us!!
With the weather getting warmer and summer creeping closer, a reminder that hats and sunscreen are highly encouraged for our recess/outdoor time. If you are sending sunscreen to school, please ensure that your child is able to apply it independently (sprays or roll-ons are really helpful!).
Just a reminder about the OJCS Maccabiah Games coming up this Friday, June 2nd!! The teams are listed below and your child should come to school wearing their team colour and ready to show their RUACH!!!
