Lotta, our school nurse will be having two health talks with the girls this and next week. We are trying to book a time for the boys as well, but no time as has been set yet.

On Friday, we hope to see you at our Science Fair, between 10.40-12.30!

Next week we will go to Slottsskogen on Monday for a sports day. Students will need to bring a packed lunch with them and appropriate clothing for run around outside. If anyone wants to join us, please let me know. This is a full school event, which means all teachers and students are going to Slottsskogen this day.

On Thursday next week we will be canoeing all day. We'll leave school straight away and head out to Vättlefjälls kanotpool. There we'll get the canoes and life-wests and head out on the lake. It will be me, Camilla, Peter, Joel, John Stanich and Jim Thompson. Three of these teachers are PE teachers, and two are swimming instructors as well. We will be canoeing together, and we will not be out on open water. We will be in pretty small lakes with lots of little islands. If you want to have a look at the lakes and the surrounding, click here. There will be 3 students in each canoe. We will then head out to a nice island and stop for lunch. We will bring a grill and hot dogs and buns for everyone. Students only need to bring a snack and something to drink. Depending on the weather and how brave they are, they can bring swimming clothes.

A great day of Orienteering

taking it easy on the whale
Last Friday all of Year 5 had a day of orienteering in slottskogen. Everyone was put into mixed groups of four with some people having to use a mix of Swedish and English to communicate with their group. Each group had to find 10 spots on the map and take a photo of their whole group in front. We have requested photos from the students, so as soon as I get some photos I'll post them up.
