Community Cleanup

Today, on Earth Day we walked around the community picking up trash/litter. We also went to Trilium Manor and cleaned up the gardens and property. Our main focus was to help out the community to seem more welcoming, clean and beautiful. Earth Day is a day to celebrate the beautiful land Mother Nature gave us. Now the neighbourhood is cleaner.

The Blogging Challange

For ten weeks our class is taking on the blogging challange. We are going to write ten blog posts on our own student blogs for ten weeks to challange ourselves to become better bloggers. This week is the first week of the blogging challange and we had to write to ten insperational or important people, dead or alive, and write one or more questions that we wanted to ask them. Some students chose to write to late family members or people they look up to and some chose to write to  famous people. Something i think that is cool about this is that teachers, students , and other people can look at our posts and comment on them so you can get feedback and think deeper about what you are writing. I think this is going to be a great experence for our class and we all are going to become awesome bloggers.

happy blogging!

Milk Bags !

Do you have any extra milk bags that are lying around at home ? Well did you know that they are actually really usefull? By donating them to kind citizens around orillia they can make mattress for little boys and girls in forien countrys around the globe. Imagine how many milk bags it would take to make 1 mattress thats why we would need plenty of bags. If we got our whole school to bring in milk bags we could make a big difference in many kid’s lives. If you are interested in brining some in you only need to bring in the outer bag not the little clear plastic bag that actually hold the milk. When i think of  sleeping on a milk bag mattress i imagine what they were sleeping on before. The ground? a thin blanket maybe? I am just glad that i can be a part of helping people across the world. so if you want to help , bring in those milk bags!!!!!!!!!! 🙂
