Students in Ms. Wheeler’s Grade 5/6 class have been reaching for the stars through an exciting hands-on project in their Learning Commons sessions with Mr. Irving. As part of their Science Space unit and ADST (Applied Design, Skills, and Technology) Rocketry studies, learners have been busy designing, building, and launching water rockets.
The class recently celebrated their first successful launch, filling the back field with energy and excitement. Now, students are applying their problem-solving skills by making adjustments and repairs to improve their rocket designs for future flights.
Thank you so much, Mr. Irving for this project that has sparked curiosity, creativity, and collaboration—proving that science can be both educational and fun!

Fire Prevention Week
As part of Fire Prevention Week, students enjoyed an exciting and educational visit to the local Firehall to learn all about Fire Safety. A very special thank you to the Naramata Fire Department for providing students with the opportunity to learn all about fire safety, see the firetrucks up close, and get demonstrations of firefighting equipment. The visit will for sure leave a lasting impression on our children and instill in them the importance of fire safety. A few of our students also won the unforgettable experience of "Fire Chief for a Day" and had a ride along to and from school in a fire truck.
Serving Up Smiles and Tennis Lessons!
Tennis Coaches Jim Kocsis and Ken Naylor finished up an exciting week of tennis instruction with our students recently!

As a testament to the students' enjoyment of the program, the tennis courts have been full of enthusiastic tennis players every recess and lunch break since!
