With the expertise of Mrs. Graham and assistance of Mrs. Roberts, grade 5 students will continue to learn guitar as part of the music program at Longview School. Students very much enjoy the lessons and greatly appreciate Mrs. Graham taking the time to share her skill and talent with them. Our grade six students will attend band at Oilfields High School every Wednesday and Thursday afternoon. Mrs. Graham has enjoyed the Journal and Art Club and will continue to offer this enriching activity.
We have Club Tuesdays planned for every TUESDAY at lunch time. Every month the club activity will change. A variety of club activities will be planned by Ms. Thomson, Mrs. Roberts, Ms. Hoyle and Ms. England. There will be something for everyone to join and enjoy from crafts to cooking, from games to dance.
Mrs. Winfield invites students to join her multimedia club next year scheduled for WEDNESDAYS at lunch time. Students will be involved in creating multimedia presentations for assemblies, writing the school newspaper, assembling the yearbook, adding to the school web page and sharing news as Longview School reporters. Mrs. Winfield (Educational Assistant) and Judy Usborne (Learning Support Teacher) will continue to offer outstanding learning support to our students.
FRIDAY afternoons we have again scheduled Eagle Pride Time. We are planning school wide Eagle Pride activities for all the students to participate in. Longview Students are very proud of their school. They take pride in being an eagle and proudly wear the school colours of blue and gold. Our motto, Once an Eagle always an Eagle, is about the qualities, characteristics and behaviors we expect from and foster in our students. It is about what touches the heart and makes our students better athletes, better students and better people.
Many exciting art, music, drama and sports activities and experiences are being planned for our students. And of course, we have already scheduled on the calendar our Thanksgiving assembly, Halloween carnival, Remembrance Day assembly, Christmas Performance, Talent Days, Spring Theatre, Eagles Expo, as well as, a number of other special occasions, activities and special guests.
Longview School is a great school! The support we receive from our parents and the community is outstanding! This support helps nurture the growth of our students in their learning. We are looking forward to all the great things planned for this year! See you all on the first day of school, Thursday, September 1st for a continental breakfast and welcome back assembly.
