Kids have different ideas about how to spend their summer time..... This script was written by a very clever grade 3 student who could see both sides of the story. Then he asked a classmate to help him bring his script to life in this video.
Take a look!
What's YOUR opinion? And, could you write and perform a cool play like this?

NEWS FLASH!!! Trip to GREENHOUSE
My class went to the green house and we learned about plants. It was a bit far and we go tired! We all had to walk in a long line and took one street car. Ms Wells and Darlene went with us. We planted bean seeds. We got to take the plant home and take care of it. It is still growing. I love to go on field trips!

The Tragedy in Haiti
You all probably know about the tragedy that unfortunately happened in Haiti. A massive earthquake hit Haiti causing major damage to a city named Port-au-Prince destroying houses, buildings and more, leaving many homeless. Many people were stuck under the rocks and crushed houses, many Canadians are missing in Haiti also. Aid organizations are working extremely hard to help free every person trapped under the rocks but they aren’t the only people helping out Haitians, emergency relief teams are providing medical help for the people of Haiti too.
All around the world are giving donations and even making benefit concerts to raise money for Haiti. Nelson Mandela Park Public School Girls’ Group were also helping raise money to support Haiti by creating this raffle contest to win some prizes. They sold the tickets at 25 cents and many people participated in the event. They raised about $500 WOW! Later on they organized a bake sale to also help Haiti through the crisis too.
Then later Haiti received at least 52 aftershocks. Almost 300, 000 people were found injured and 230,000 were found dead! It’s really sad and some of them are kids who have lost their families and maybe even their friends due to deadly the earthquake. Some people are still missing and they need any help they can get.

Science Center Visit!
Room 19 and 15 are going to the Science Center!
On February 1st, room 15 and 19 are going to the Science Center. The Science Center is very fun. There are cool dinosaur bones. Dinosaurs lived a long time ago. Some ate plants and some ate meat. You can take pictures of the dinosaur bones. It is cool because they put the bones together to make them look like real dinosaurs. There is even a Tyrannosaurus Rex. Maybe you should go to the Science Center too!
Now we've been to the Science Center!
To get to the Science Center by bus it takes a few minutes. First we put our stuff in some of the lockers. We saw a very very big skeleton but we didn't know what it was. There was a place that you walk around the middle then you make a tornado. We saw a black "rat" snake and it was very cool. We got to touch it. We went into a room like a rainforest and it was very hot. There was a bridge that we got to walk on. In the water there was a turtle underneath the bridge. "Kids' Spark" was a very fun playground. There was also an arcade. I think the Science Center is a really cool place!
Games after class in Ms. Rachel's room
Language games are happening here!!!
On Fridays after school I like to go to room 16 to play games. The people there are Ahmad, Deb, Ms. Rachel, and Salman and Ramzan. Sometimes we play Word Bingo, sometimes we play Numbers, sometimes we play I Spy With My Little Eyes. I get to eat yogurt if I am hungry. We play so we can learn and have fun and be friends. Thanks to our teachers for letting us come on Fridays.

Our Holiday Concert
December 15 2009 Nelson Mandela Park P.S. had our annual holiday concert. The concert was to celebrate the end of the calendar year and the start of the 2010 year. The concert had all sorts of wonderful holiday music such as the great holiday concert singers led by Ms. Werbitsky and Ms. Orpen, the rocking junior and senior band led by Mr. Rossetti and the sweet sound of the senior and junior steel pan led by Mr. Burgess. The concert started at 6pm and ended at 7pm.
Parents and friends were invited to the festivity to watch their kids perform and have fun on stage. If they got hungry Jean and her students baked around 200 chocolate chip cookies. They tasted really good but unfortunately they were gone so fast. Usually the holiday concert is held in the gym but this year was different, it was in the main foyer. The place was packed so many people came to see the wonderful things we had to show them. And we wowed them for sure, GREAT JOB!!!!!!!!!
