Early Years (birth to 5 years)
Inside a Flower
Landmark 3 (Exercise Senses Daily)
Today we saw a fuzzy bee up very close as it twirled around and around inside a flower. We exercised our senses as we looked at the bright pink flower, the black and yellow bee, and the yellow pollen. We smelled the fragrant flower. We heard the bee buzzing. When we went back inside we looked at one of our favourite books about bees which we love because it makes the same buzzy bee sounds we heard outside.
School for Young Moms – June 21, 2022
Parachute Play
Landmark 7 (Books, Songs, Games Weekly)
Students were thrilled to play various games with the parachute and play games on the logs in the yard.

Eating Sprouts

Connections
Landmark 12 (Nearby Plants and Animals)
We went with Nature Nancy to Barnardo Park and studied living things in the environment. Looked for squirrel nests then extended the students knowledge and understanding by creating their own nest with a partner. Great hands-on activity with connection to the observations of daily occurrences in the students world.
Queen Elizabeth Gr 1/2 – May 30, 2022
Forest Findings
Landmark 9 (Special Outdoor Place)
We walked to Jackson Park and did an outdoor scavenger hunt with Easter eggs. We saw a snapping turtle and a squirrel who took one of our eggs up the tree.

Peterborough Pagans
Landmark 17 (Three New Outdoor Skills)
A big thanks to Michelle from Peterborough Pagans for coming to teach us how to play rugby today!
Highland Heights Gr 6/7 – June 21, 2022
Environmental Footprints
Landmark 20 (Plan and Conduct a Project)
Grade 6/7 students conducted an “Upcycle Cafe”! They identified a need for indoor recess games at school and designed games by reusing materials to reduce their environmental footprints. They used old wooden trays, dowels from a broken clothes drying rack, scraps of wood, boxes, clothes pegs, leftover coffee cups, and more. They learned many valuable skills and had a ton of fun along the way. Their games are getting lots of use!
Highland Heights Gr 6/7 – June 20, 2022
Senior (14 to 17 years)
Volunteers
Landmark 26 (Volunteer in Three Ways)
Grade 6/7 students were at it again! This time they volunteered for a physical task. They worked all morning to help move/spread a load of gravel onto our school yard. It was a lot of hard work.
Highland Heights Gr 6/7 – June 20, 2022
Amazing Volunteers
Landmark 26 (Volunteer in Three Ways)
Grade 6/7 students are AMAZING volunteers. They help our primary classes every day by acting as lunch monitors in various classes and playing with primary students at recess. It is wonderful to watch them make such positive contributions to our school community.
