School Update:
Family Selfie (Felfie) Board: As we continue to celebrate the wonderful diversity of our Woodbine community, we invite staff and students to contribute to our "Felfie Board" in the school. Please bring a family selfie, along with a flag that represents your family's culture(s), to school.
Gaga Ball Pit Volunteers: We’re excited to announce that Ms. Bignell will be assembling and setting up a Gaga Ball pit at our school, and we need parent volunteers to help bring this fun project to life! Gaga Ball is a fast-paced, high-energy game played in an octagonal pit, similar to dodgeball but with an emphasis on agility, strategy, and having fun. It’s a fantastic way for students to stay active and build teamwork skills during recess. If you’re able to lend a hand in setting up the pit on October 4, 2024 from 12:00pm-2:00pm, please click the link below to sign up and support this exciting addition to our schoolyard!
