@BrunoPallotto @BellewoodBisons Thank you girls for taking such great care of my plants this past winter!!! You’re the BEST💗

Appreciating some of our kind Bisons for all their extra help around the school this year! Thank you for always being generous with your time! Looking forward to your leadership next year! #BisonProud @loripiazza66 @BellewoodBisons

Our West Gate Wolves rocked the Special Olympics! Everyone did their best in the events and had so much fun. Thank you @EssexDistrict for hosting! It was a wonderful day.

Our students are so focused when they participate in painting tutorials. These bunny paintings are absolutely adorable! #gecdsbgains

For today’s cooking class we made personal pizzas from Antonino’s Original Pizza. Our students loved rolling their own dough and picking their toppings. These kits were a hit! @antoninospizza_ #gecdsbgains #lifeskills

Our students enjoy drawing tutorials so we like to give them the challenge of following painting tutorials and they absolutely love it! @WestgateWolves #gecdsbgains

Yesterday we listened to different genres of music and discussed how the music made us feel. Then we drew a continuous line while we listened to a song and painted the spaces with water colour. They turned out beautiful! #gecdsbgains

We’ve been practicing coding on paper and tried out our skills with the Code & Go Robot Mouse. They rocked it! #gecdsbgains @LindsaySkene @MikeWil03652704

Thank you to Puneet and Karyn from RBC for their generous donation to our snack program. We are so appreciative!

An amazing afternoon helping to raise funds for @WindsorCCF at Crews and Brews' with a team rowing relay. Rowed in honour of my Uncle Sergio and for family and friends that have fought or are fighting. #crewsnbrews22

Today for our 8th day of holiday cheer, we read the Littlest Christmas Tree and then made our own little trees.

A HUGE thank you to South Windsor Optimist Club for your generous donation to our breakfast club. Our hungry wolves are extremely appreciative! @LaneAnge @WestgateWolves

We remember #LestWeForget

Today we made poppies for Remembrance Day to honour the fallen soldiers who fought to protect our country.

We had some leftover pumpkin purée from the bread we made so we decided to make pumpkin pudding cups. They were a hit!

We’ve been talking and reading about pumpkins and their life cycle. To end our discussion we read Pumpkin Jack and put our pumpkin in a container with dirt to see what happens to it by the end of the school year. Stay tuned!

Students in GLE1O/2O @TVAsecondary have been expanding their teamwork skills. I'm small groups, students were given marshmallows and pasta noodles to try and build the tallest tower that could hold for over a minute #GECDSBProud @gecdsbpro

For the last week we’ve been talking about pumpkins and their life cycle. Yesterday we baked pumpkin bread. It was so good!!

Making pudding in a bag was a hit today! Thank you @EAMsRuggeri for the recommendation. Our students loved it. #gains

Today some of our students made sensory paintings in a bag. They enjoyed watching the colours mix together as they squished them through the bag. #gains

Today we read “Breathing Makes It Better”; a new book from our school library. We spoke about moments when we need to take a breath before we react. Afterwards we made a collaborative painting using different breaths and painted what we thought they looked like.
