Outdoor Learning Classroom- April 2025

Teachers at École Springfield Elementary School have been slowly working at developing an outdoor learning classroom for all the students. This week Mrs. Harpe's Gr. 4 class invited Mrs. Keddie's Outdoor Education Class from Peace River High School to help to develop some flower boxes and some more outdoor seating. We want to thank them for coming to help with the construction as well as reading to the Gr. 4 class in the new space. We invite all classes to spend some time in the outdoor learning classroom this spring and we hope to further develop it, for more use this fall.

Classroom Champions program- Mrs. Aquino's class- April 2025

Mrs. Aquino's class has been participating in the Classroom Champions program. It is a social emotional learning program where you work through units on topics such as teamwork, perseverance, leadership and healthy living. Each class is assigned a mentor with whom they get to interact with by viewing videos and taking part in challenges etc. Today, their class got to have a Zoom meeting with Olympic Speed Skater Tyson Langelaar. The students got to ask questions, show him what they've been working on and even played a game with him of "would you rather!". He has been a great mentor and the class is excited to continue to learn alongside him and the Classroom Champions program.
