We would like to congratulate all of our participants on a job well done. We would also like to
thank all those family members and friends who took the time to view the projects in our gym and
interact with our young presenters. Your words of encouragement and support can only inspire
our students to achieve their very best!
For the month of March, kindergarten students have been learning about the story of The Three Little Pigs and The
Big Bad Wolf! We have created straw, wood and brick houses, the big bad wolf and the three little pigs out of
different craft materials! We have also been writing about the pigs and different vocabulary and phrases from the
story. We have played exciting board games where the wolf huffs and puffs and blows you right off of your square!
We have seen three different video versions of the three little pigs and have had a blast role playing and acting out
the story during carpet time.
École Robert Browning will be
hosting a tea in May to say
“merci” to all our
school volunteers
who have helped
us throughout
this school year.
Invitations will be
sent home soon
with students. Please reply as
soon as possible. We have
checked our records carefully but
oversights can occur. Please do
not hesitate to contact our office at
837-8381 if you helped out this
year and did not receive your
invitation. More information will
follow shortly.
Family
Math Night
In May 2015,
École Robert
Browning will be holding an
exciting event: FAMILY MATH
NIGHT. Students, parents,
siblings, and other relatives are
invited to attend a fun-filled
evening of mathematical pleasure.
The intent of Family Math Night is
to participate in math standards in
action as we strengthen the
mathematical application, problem
solving, and communication skills
of students through the power of
family interaction. We encourage
you to continue to support your
child’s mathematical growth
through your participation in
Family Math Night. More
information will follow shortly.

have such wonderful parents.
A special thank you to our
Parent Council for the
wonderful gifts they provided
to all staff.
Merci!
To all Grade 5 students going to Golden Gate:
Do you have a child who will be entering Grade 6 at École Golden Gate Middle School and taking
band next year? We would like to make you aware of two important dates. To make sure everyone
gets an instrument that they are best suited for, Golden Gate will be hosting two “Choose Your
Instrument” nights on Wednesday, April 22 and Thursday, April 23 from 4:30-6:30PM. Parents are
asked to call Golden Gate at 204-837-5808 to make a 15 minute appointment for ONE of these
evenings. During the appointment, students will have the chance to try all of the instruments available to
them next year and choose the instrument they wish to play. It is very important that students attend this
evening as there will be instrument specialists on hand to assist students in making their choice. If you
have any questions, please contact one of the band teachers - Mr. Popiel (cpopiel@sjsd.net) or Mme
Martin (cmartin@sjsd.net). You can also reach us by phone at the number listed above.
