On Wednesday, June 20 I am in need of one volunteer in the afternoon to assist us in washing the math manipulatives. This would consist of running them through the dishwasher, drying on towels and resorting back into bins. If you are available to help in this manner please sing up by following the link below.

Bike to School Day Tomorrow - Tuesday, June 5
ROS students are encouraged to participate in Bike to School Day tomorrow! Please check your son or daughter's back pack for their Bike Tag and a letter filled with important information about the event.
Sports Day! Tomato giveaway.
Thank you to all the parent volunteers and student volunteers from William D Pratt for helping us to run a fantastic sports day. Your children had a great time participating in a variety of sporting and fun movement activities. Ask your child what their favourite part was and why.
We have submitted our tomato germination results and now have some lovely tomato plants that need a new home. If you would like a tomato plant please let me know at skcook@cbe.ab.ca and I will send one home with your child to plant in your garden. Depending on the level of interest I may be able to send home one of each of the two tested plants so that you can continue the experiment at home to see what plant produces the best tomatoes.
