CLASS NEWS

Our fish are growing, and finding their way into various tubes of the tank.. Next week we’ll release them into the wild, where they’ll begin their journey to the sea. To wrap up our Storyline the students are preparing short presentations that we’ll share after our field trip next Thursday.

FIELD TRIPS

Thursday morning December 14th we’re going to Johnson Creek and release our salmon. While we’re there the students will also do observations & tests of the habitat our fish are going into.

Field trips two. We are still selling Chinook Books (the eco-friendly coupon book) to raise money for our spring trip to Opal Creek.They are quite handy, with a wide variety of coupons and make nice holiday gifts. You can pick them up at our classroom.

SCHOOL OBSERVATIONS

Are you interested in being a host taking prospective parents on “tours” of CSS? Do you know someone who’d like to be a host? Do you know someone looking for a school for their child?

Observations tours of CSS begin later this year (winter) and we’re looking for volunteers to help. If you are interested talk to me or Teacher Jules.
