Heritage Fair

Thursday, March 26^th, 2015

Dear Parents,

            We would like to invite you to attend our Canadian Heritage Fair.  This program is a student-centred, inquiry learning opportunity to explore Saskatchewan and Canada in fulfilment of Saskatchewan provincial curriculum.  Our students from grades 7 and 8 have been developing their Heritage Fair projects in the classroom through inquiry based learning.  Students have learned how to effectively research their topics, create a written report, design a visual display and finally present their material in an oral presentation through the Fair.  Our Heritage Fair will be held on Thursday, April 2nd, in the gym.  This will be an opportunity for all students to share their knowledge with each other, staff, special guests and parents.  

Please note the schedule for the day.  During the time your child’s home-room is listed that classroom will be doing peer evaluations and may not be at their station.
