Hullett students make kites
EDITED BY
KIM ELLIOTT, KARLA
STACEY, TREVOR TREWARTHA
AND AMY JENKINS
Grade One/Two
Mrs. Bosman's Grade 1/2 had a
great March break and everyone
came back well rested and with lots
of new clothes.
They have learned lots of "Kite"
things this week - songs and poems
and made beautiful kites that are
flying out in the hall.
They also know all the safety
rules for kite flying.
The boys and girls are really
reading these days and some people
have more than 100 books. They
are very glad that Spring is finally
here.
SHROVE TUESDAY
By Melissa Snell
and Rebekah Brandon
Grade Three
On Shrove Tuesday, Grade three
made pancakes to celebrate.
Shrove Tuesday is a time of
celebration in many countries. It
corresponds with fastnacht in
Germany and Mardi Gras in France
and the Southern United States.
The English celebrate Shrove
Tuesday and Pancake Tuesday or
Pancake Day. They traditionally
cook and eat flat thin pancakes on
that day.
THE CHEFS OF GRADE SIX
On Shrove Tuesday the Grade 6
class prepared themselves a lunch
of pancakes and sausages. There
were many pancakes for everyone.
Mrs. Pietsch, Mr. Jewitt, Miss
Morgan, and five parents came for
lunch. Thanks to the parents for
their help with the preparations.
Mrs. Pietsch says they can cook for
her anytime!
BAND PREPARES FOR
LONDON MUSIC FESTIVAL
The band is now into the final
preparations for the London Music
Festival. They will be playing on
Tuesday April 7 at Saunders
Secondary School.
These young people have worked
very hard throughout the year and
will certainly have a great
performance.
GRADE SEVEN
Written by Amy Jenkins
Grade sevens have been studying
and working hard for their Science
Fair and tests that they are having.
Miss Morgan has made it a little
easier on them by giving them an
outline.
The grade sevens are also
working on their art. They are
using pictures from the solar
systems and working with pastels.
GRADE EIGHT
Mr. Medd's grade eight class has
put a great deal of effort into their
Science Fair projects. On
Wednesday March 25 grade six,
sevens and eights all set up their
projects in the gym. They got
judged that night and on Thursday
March 26 as well. On Friday they
had to take them down. After all
that work they could only keep
them out on display for two days,
but it was really worth it.
Good luck to Jason Culberson
from grade eight, Mike Luna from
grade eight and Kim Jamieson from
grade seven.
CHESS TOURNAMENT
Fifty-six committed Chess
Tournament participants completed

the players get better and better.
The Chess Club will resume in the
fall.
