Hi Folks!

Our week is off to a fast start as it's already Tuesday. Each night students should be reading their levelled English and French books. School pictures are going home today. The retake date has not been given as of yet. It looks like orders will done online this year.

The Chatham Public Library is slated to reopen next week. Once I have a date set for a visit, I will let you know. In the meantime, if any child does not have a NB public library card and would like one, please let know and I'll send the form home with them.

Students have been working hard in our garden. Check out some photos on our class website: Mme. Robichaud | King Street Elementary (nbed.nb.ca). They are uploading now.

All for now!

Harvesting our garden

Posted: September 27, 2023

We spent some time in the garden on Tuesday. Super gardener MAX and his family grew vegetables in our School Garden over the summer months. So did GRACIE! Great work gardeners! We are now prepping the vegetables for the cafeteria. Nothing better than "farm" to table!

Nest box research

Posted: September 27, 2023

A few years ago my class made nest boxes for the school with the help of Robert Hembrough and his JMH shop class. We visited and painted the nest boxes. Today was the first step in putting them up! Mr Peter Gadd visited with us after the class researched the best spots for placement. In the...

Hi folks!

Students are getting into routine at school, I hope they are getting into the swing of things at home too. I try to post to our website each week along with our weekly reminders - it'll take me a bit to get into the swing of things too!

All students received their French levelled books today and are expected to read them each night. Most students also received an English levelled book to read each night as well. If your child has not received an English book, it will be sent home once I've tested them.

Also going home today is our first book order. Our class code is RC198054. Orders are due on or before Thursday, Sept 21st. Please see note attached to book order for further instructions.

Here's our class website to check out photos and reminders: Mme. Robichaud | King Street Elementary (nbed.nb.ca)

Reminders for this week:

Monday - change of clothes for gym

Tuesday -

Wednesday - library day, meet the teacher in the cafeteria @6:30pm @KSE

Hi folks!

Happy Monday! Have I mentioned how fabulous our class is today?! We have made great strides in our classroom routines and setting up expectations. They're doing great! I snapped a few pictures to post but of course our school website is down. Once I have them up, I'll send a quick shout out via email.

Students are currently being assessed in their sight words and reading levels in both French and English. I hope to have them done by the end of the week or early next week. Once this is established, you'll get a note to inform you of where your child is at and where we want them to be. Stay tuned! For now, homework is simply odds and ends, getting to bed early and starting good communication between home and school.

Cross-country has started up today with practices/meets afterschool. Since you have a list of practices/meets, I'm going to assume your child has arrangements made for pickup. A quick note in the agenda or email is appreciated to reassure your child all is a go.

Soccer permission pages are due tomorrow (Tuesday, Sept 11th) for those children that were interested. Practices for soccer start next week.

Here are a few routine reminders for you. All for now!
