March 9-13, 2026

 

Hello EES Families,

This week, we saw the temperature dip again and even had some snow! The weather reminded us that winter isn’t quite ready to leave yet.

In Language Arts, we read the classic story The Very Hungry Caterpillar. The students really enjoyed the colorful story and learning about how the caterpillar grows and changes.



In Science, we connected the story to our learning by talking about the life cycle of a butterfly. The children were fascinated to learn how a tiny egg grows into a caterpillar, then forms a chrysalis, and finally becomes a butterfly.



In Math, we continued practicing our skills with Canadian coins and telling time. Students are becoming more confident in recognizing coins and understanding their values, and we continue to practice reading the clock throughout the day.



Music is always a fun class for the kids, and they look forward to singing, moving, and exploring different rhythms each week.

We also had a lockdown practice at school. These practices are part of our regular safety procedures and help students learn how to respond calmly and safely during drills.

Parent-Teacher Conferences

A reminder that Parent-Teacher Conferences will take place next week. Conferences will be held in person at the school on Thursday, March 19, from 3:30 pm – 7:30 pm and Friday, March 20 from 8:00 am – 12:00 pm.

Parents can book conference times through their CBE account. Conference bookings will open on Saturday, March 14 at 8:00 am and close on Thursday, March 19, at 2:00 pm.

This will be a great opportunity to talk about your child’s progress and learning. We look forward to meeting you!

During Parent-Teacher Conferences, we invite families to place a colourful push pin on our world map located in our Learning Commons to show where their family comes from. Together, we will create a vibrant display celebrating the diverse backgrounds that make up our school community.

Pancake Breakfast

On Monday, March 30, MTS will be hosting a Pancake Breakfast for all students and staff.

To help make this event a success, we are looking for parent volunteers for the morning. If you can assist, please click on the link below.
