So special! Launching ‘A Place to Belong” Written by @CarolinePignat & illustrated by Alan Cranny. Even our @KBStAnne_ocsb were a part of creating this beautiful new book for our future Kinders @OttCatholicSB Thank you! @slackt @MrsPignatOCSB @ocsbRE @stannecouncil

We don't just talk about building bridges - we actually build them. 🎨🪵 Through art and construction, wood planks became pathways of identity, connection, and belonging! #BeYOU #ocsbBuildsBridges #ocsbBeCommunity #ocsbArts @stpaulOCSB

Yesterday, we had a special visitor, Mrs. Costantini! She taught us all about the Epiphany and how the Three Wise Men were of different skin tones, reminding us that Jesus is for everyone, no matter their skin colour or where they are from. @BernadetteOCSB @ocsbRE

The Kinders learned about the Three Wise Men and the gifts of gold, frankincense, & myrrh. Then they shared what they’d give baby Jesus—from toys to kind gestures. A sweet reminder that the best gifts come from the heart!✨♥️ #ocsbKidner #ocsbFaith #ocsbBuildsBridges #Epiphany

We are waiting for the birth of our Saviour! check out our beautiful collaborative art piece organized by Mrs. Vick @OttCatholicSB #ocsbArts every student in our school has contributed.

These little Grizzlies worked together to code a pathway for the three wise men to find Jesus and follow the special star to Bethlehem 🌟💛 🌟💛@ocsbRE #ocsbAdvent #unpluggedcoding #ocsbMath #ocsbBuildsBridges #ocsbFaith #ocsbKindergarten #ocsbBeCommunity @OttCatholicSB

Last Friday was a PD Day, and we had the pleasure of welcoming @StIsidoreOCSB teachers and staff for our morning Mass, staying united in prayer. @OttawaCornwall @ocsbRE

We are unbelievably proud of our Kinders who led a wonderful Advent Liturgy this morning! Our SKs shone with their readings & everyone who sang/participated was incredible. Thank you families for joining us!🌟 #ocsbAdvent #ocsbFaith #ocsbBeCommunity #ocsbHope #ocsbBuildsBridges

We got mail! The Acorns were excited to receive 4 Christmas cards and letters from other Kindergarten classes today! Our cards are on their way to 23 other schools! @StVeronicaOCSB #ocsbChristmasCardExchange #ocsbBuildsBridges

Today we welcomed Ms. Costantini into our classroom to help us learn more about prayer! Ss wrote their own 5 Finger Prayers and participated in a Prayer Circle! @StElizabethOCSB #ocsbFaith #ocsbCommunity

She’s back! Ms. Costantini joined us again this afternoon to teach us about the cross! We made our own nature crosses with natural materials we collected outside! Such an engaging block! @takemeoutside @StElizabethOCSB #ocsbFaith @EcoSchoolsCAN 🦅 🌍 😊

This morning, the Kidners lit the first candle of Advent: Hope (Prophet's Candle). As we begin this season, we joyfully prepare for the arrival of Jesus. May your season be filled with peace and light.💜 #ocsbAdvent #ocsbFaith #ocsbBeCommunity #ocsbHope #ocsbBuildsBridges

A very special guest is visiting our classroom for Advent! We are learning about the shepherds (les bergers) who visited baby Jesus in Bethlehem. The letter of the week is "La lettre B", comme Bethlehem, bébé et berger. @StVeronicaOCSB #ShepherdOnTheSearch #ocsbAdvent

Students enjoyed earning their first bingo symbol for the @ocsbArts Advent Bingo. Such a fun initiative to get us into the spirit of the Advent season. @StGiannaOCSB @OttCatholicSB #ocsbAdvent

Gr. 6s led our week one Advent liturgy. The lighting of the Advent candles symbolizes the light of Jesus, slowly but surely, overcoming the darkness. The closer we get to Christmas, the more light there is in the world #ocsbAdvent @StIsabelOCSB #ocsbBuildBridges #ocsbBeCommunity
