It's hard to believe that we are down to our last two months of school! 

Our class has been working hard and we are looking forward to our first Provincial Achievement Tests which will begin soon. 

Please see the list below for the dates of these tests and mark them on your calendar at home. 

You can help your child to be successful by encouraging them to be relaxed and comfortable. Also, a good night's sleep, a healthy breakfast, and getting to school on time on these days is very important!
 
There is an online parent guide to Achievement Tests, which includes some sample questions that you may find useful. Please click on the link below.
