Today we had a fun, safe time skating thanks to our volunteers and helpful, patient students. Before skating we had music and exchanged valentine's cards. Thank you for your generosity! We also learned a new funny poem by Jack Prelutsky called Mother's Chocolate Valentine.
Challenge for the day: While we were walking into the Olympic Oval we noticed the torch from the Winter 1988 Olympics. A question was posed: How many years ago were the 1988 Olympics?
Yesterday's blog message included information about helping others in Calgary who are less fortunate.

Heart Day Donations:
We would like to join Mrs. Tipper and Stuart's initiative to reach out to Calgarians on Valentine's Day by thinking of others and donating generously. They will be collecting donations for the food bank, homeless and Calgary Humane Society. We calculated today that if everyone donated the cost of a box of Valentine's card which is about $3.00, we could donate $60.00. If you would like to participate by donating a few loonies, toonies, non- perishable food, toiletries, warm accessories (socks, scarves, mitts) or pet food, Mrs. Tipper will deliver the items on Thursday.
