April 29 - May 3, 2024

Hello, Grade 1 Families, 

Learning Intention: I can demonstrate various ways of moving safely through space during physical activity. I can demonstrate appropriate responses to environmental cues. I can participate in physical activity in a variety of contexts to improve my well-being. 

What a busy week with our swimming lessons! In Alberta, especially in a lake community, the importance of swimming lessons for young learners cannot be overstated. Not only does swimming foster physical fitness, but it also cultivates crucial life skills and safety awareness in and around water—a vital component of the physical education curriculum.

Swimming lessons offer more than just physical benefits—they foster personal growth and confidence. As children overcome challenges and achieve milestones in the water, they build resilience and self-esteem. These positive experiences extend beyond the pool, influencing their overall well-being and contributing to a sense of accomplishment in all areas of life.

This week was a great week to see perseverance, determination and pride. I am proud of every student for the growth they made this week.
