Winter Carnival

Today we had our Winter Carnival for the students. It was about -10 outside all day with heavy snowfall to start the festivities, but the sun made an appearance near the end of the morning. The kids seemed to have fun although there were a number of them that went inside due to the cold. Claire was the timekeeper and I ran a hockey-style game in the snow. Afterwards the school had prepared bannock dogs for lunch.

This year the school hasn't run a breakfast program, even though they order food at the beginning of the year. Since much of it was expiring, we have been giving things out for a couple of weeks. Today was the oats that were being given to the students to take home. After a while, they noticed that inside the bag there were bugs so they had the students return the oats. Some did make it out of the school, so let's hope parents see the message on facebook about the bugs.

Tomorrow we are off to Niagara for March Break. Time seems to fly and we are excited to catch up with family and friends when we are home. It will be nice to see Edgar again as we have both missed him the past two months.
