Activity Day!

Wow! It was a perfect day for our Activity Day! Most of the Grade 5s volunteered in the AM to run stations and then got to play for the PM. Thanks to all the volunteers - parents, siblings, and students from Robert Andrews for helping out!

Winter Olympic Activity Day!

Today was such a fun day! We had our Winter Olympic Activity Day, thanks to the planning by Mrs. Rand and a small committee of teachers. Unfortunately because of the weather, we were forced to stay inside, but we still managed to visit 12 different stations throughout the day! We started off the morning with a parade of flags and opening ceremonies - with the lighting of the Olympic torch and raising of the Olympic flag. The grade fives were excellent leaders with our Kindergarten buddies from Mrs. Henry's class.

Hope you enjoy the video!

Activity Day!

Wow! Today was just the most perfect day for our Activity Day and Hot Lunch! We truly lucked out with the weather! Did you know 120 students and adults volunteered their time to help out with Activity Day?! Grade 5s and parents ran stations in the morning. Then, over 40 students from Robert Andrews helped out parents in the afternoon! It was so great to see some "old" students! Thanks to all the families that joined us outside for a picnic lunch! And then we ended the day with freezies, thanks to PAC!

Activity Day!

Today was an awesome day! It was Activity Day and our class and the Grade 5s in Mrs. Dyck's class got to run stations in the morning! In the afternoon, we got to try out all the stations when they were run by parent volunteers and Robert Andrew students. It was so great to see some BHS alumni . . . some students were once my Kindergarteners and Grade 3s and 4s way-back-when! :) We also had hot lunch which lots of families joined in on! Luckily the weather cooperated as well!

Activity Day!

Today we had Field Day it was awesome. One of the reasons why it was awesome was because in the morning we got to run station, which was really fun. A few of the stations were baseball throw and another one was hockey shootout. They both were awesome. And one of the wet ones was water balloon catch and if you squeeze it, you get wet a lot. And another one we did was one of our favourites and it is baseball hit. How you do that one is all you have is a sponge ball and a sponge bat and then you put the ball on a cone and you try and hit the ball. But Dobie and Liam did not want a cone so we got him to pitch to us. Then once I went I got the record but when Dobie went he had to get the record I hope they beat it. That was about it for the morning but there was more activities but it would take super long to finish.

Now the Afternoon…

After lunch we got to play the stations but some people got to run a station and who it was is Dobie, Liam and Andrew. But half way through we ditched Andrew and went to play stations. But we did not use cards they used balloons till a kid popped them. Each station Liam and Dobie did not leave till we got gold. But one of the stations was baseball throw and it was really hard. Because they were softballs not hardballs. But Dobie’s brother was running that station and we both asked him if he can give us gold for free but he didn’t let us which really sucked. And Dobie and I wanted a drink before the stations open and we got one and the cool thing is that we were supposed only get 3 drinks but we got 4. And the best station was the water ones we got soaked! My favourite one was the water balloons and I probably got the most wet at that station because Dobie whipped a water balloon at me and then I punched it then splashed so much water on me. One other station I really liked was a Frisbee game where you dumped water on your head. But the idea of the game is to get water on a Frisbee and dump it in to a bucket and at the end you dump it on to your head and you would get soaked. Another one of the water station was bobbing for balls and then at the end you get to dunk your head in the bucket of water. Then after me and Liam finished doing some stations I went back to help Andrew with the station but Liam didn’t he just went somewhere else. And after we were done field day we got to eat popsicles they were really good.

Activity Day!

Wow! Today was the last Activity Day and Hot Lunch at BHS EVER for the Grade 5s & 6s! It was nice to have family join us for lunch in Room 31. Thanks to all the parent volunteers that helped throughout the day. Somehow, Mother Nature held the rain off . . . and it sprinkled only at lunch! It was an awesome Friday!

Today was activity day! The grade 5s had to work a station in the morning. Haley was working at Water Polo and Madison was doing Tennis Keep Up. Our activities were outside and in the gym in the morning but right before lunch it started to rain, so we had to move everything inside. We had an awesome hot lunch! In the afternoon we got a chance to help work the face paint, but only if we wanted to. Haley signed up for face painting once and Madison signed up to do it twice. After we are done our shifts we can grab our score cards and go to an activity. Haley’s favourite activity was Basketball throw. Madison’s favourite activity was face painting and she got a cat. After activity day was finished, we got popsicles!!

Field Day!

Memphis’s point of view-

My favourite station was the water balloon station. Me, Reagan, and Faith were partners.

We passed the water balloon around in a triangle and it broke and splashed all over Faith! Me and Reagan ran the “Scoop It” station. We had lots of customers. This field day was SUPER FUNJ!

Maddy’s point of View-

My favourite station was water balloon station. Brooklyn and I were partners. We passed the water balloon to each other and it popped on me (Maddy). Brooklyn and I ran the “Soft Ball Throw”.J

Reagan’s Point of View-  

So… my favourite part of field day was running the station with Memmy and being next to Renee and Faith. I, as you already know, ran the Scoop it station.

 My favourite station however was the juice station, but since it wasn’t an activity, my favourite one other than that was Water Relay, cause I got wet. We saved our cups so we could have 3 instead of two, which was totally worth it.

Thanks to the Phys Ed teachers, lots of parent volunteers (many from Room 5!), and the Grade 5 and 6 students, we had a super organized, fun-filled day! We had a yummy hot lunch . . . nothing beats a BBQ on a summer day, and polished off some popsicles just before heading home. Take a peek to see how busy we were:
