Sumo Wrestling!

Yesterday in the front of the school was the Sumo match of the century! Mrs. McGrory vs. Mr. Rousseau. The student's support for the wrestlers was about 50/50.  The students who raised money for the Read-A-Thon had tickets for this awesome event, plus some lucky students whose names were drawn in the raffle won tickets as well. Check out all the photos and scroll down to find out who the champion is!

Thank you to all of the families who supported this year's Read-A-Thon!

Making Pasta with Ms. Brown

Today, we took a field trip down the hall to Ms. Brown's kitchen. We wanted to see how Ms. Brown sorts the items in her kitchen.

Ms. Brown showed us how she keeps everything sorted and organized in her freezer. This helps her and her helpers know where to find what they need.


He helped get yogurt out of the freezer. He knew right where it was because everything was sorted!

He got the bread for Ms. Brown.

We learned that Ms. Brown sorts her plates, cups, bowls and many other things in the kitchen. She labelled each cupboard so everyone knows where everything goes!

Then Ms. Brown needed our help to sort the cutlery.


We had lots of fun in Ms. Brown's kitchen. THANK YOU MS. BROWN!!!!

Happy Blue Day!

Read-A-Thon

Yesterday was Prince Edward's Read-A-Thon. We had a great filled day with guest readers, costumes and fun! A big thank you to the families who raised money for our school. Without you and your support we couldn't do all the great things we do at Prince Edward!

Jerrod Smith of the Windsor Spitfires read us "The Hockey Sweater."

The grade 5's came to read with us in the afternoon.





Many of our friends dressed as a character from their favourite story.
