As an annual tradition, students have been busy harvesting and planting poppy seeds in honour of Remembrance Day. Every class is given a package of seeds to plant from our own school garden.

Inspired by a squirrel drey (nest) students worked together throughout the day to build a survival shelter from forest debris (branches, leaves, sticks, etc) .@AndersonEagles

After students planted, watered, harvested, washed and chopped potatoes, they enjoyed their reward: French Fries! Made in the air fryer. Students really enjoyed the fries saying they were “better than McDonalds”!

After being inspired by the book “Leaf Man”, students made their own leaf creations. #Takemeoutside .@AndersonEagles

Students were busy harvesting beans, corn and squash from our Three Sisters garden. What do you do with all the beans? Put them in order from longest to shortest!

Wonderful display of sunflowers in the school garden. Students have been looking closely and enjoying watching all the creatures visiting the flowers. .@AndersonEagles

So fun to attend the Rubik’s Cube event at @AndersonEagles this afternoon. Their school-wide goal is “building community through mathematics” and this event brought the school together through collaborative learning, spatial reasoning and a little competition. #sd38learn

A wonderful Bollywood performance @AndersonEagles to celebrate their learning with Bollywood dancer and choreographer Karima Essa. She had the entire community audience engaged! @SD38Arts @RichmondSD38

The @NatureCanada Nature Bus came to our school. Students created a group artwork writing their wish ribbons for the earth and books of their special, local, natural places. All will be displayed in the Canada Pavilion at the Global Nature Summit in Montreal. .@AndersonEagles

We celebrated with potato sundaes. Toppings included: chives from the school garden, aster and sunflower petals also from our garden, home made butter and sour cream. Delicious!
