Hello Families,
It was a
short but exciting week at EES, filled with lots of learning and winter fun!
Our theme for the week was “Winter Clothes,” and the children had a great time
exploring what we wear during different seasons.
Through
discussions and hands-on activities, students practiced important life skills
by learning to identify and choose appropriate winter clothing. We also
read a lovely winter story, which helped build vocabulary and sparked
conversations about cold weather. One of the key activities involved distinguishing
between summer and winter clothes, and the children did a fantastic job sorting
and explaining their choices.
In science,
we carried out the very exciting “Expanding Snowman” experiment, which was a
huge hit! As the snowman grew bigger with bubbles and air, the classroom filled
with cheers and excitement. Everyone loved watching the snowman grow “big” right
before their eyes.
In art,
students got creative with a winter animal craft, using their imagination and
fine motor skills.
We’re so
proud of the children’s enthusiasm and participation. Thank you for your
continued support!

Food Support
Did you know that the Breakfast Club of Canada has shared research
demonstrating that 40% of Alberta’s children experience food insecurity?
This means that 4 out of 10 children do not have access to food when they are
hungry.
If your family is experiencing challenges with providing food for
your children, you can find help at Brown Bagging Calgary.
Complete this form for support, and they can deliver lunches to
McKenzie Towne School for your children. https://go.bb4ck.org/l/858913/2024-01-15/38fdbw You
