We have arrived at Spring Break! Yay! I think we all need a break -- sleeping in and lazing around and hanging out and maybe having a little trip. We are going to Ottawa! I know, lots of people have looked twice at me for that choice, but I think it will be lot of fun. We will go to the Parliament Buildings and all the great museums and it will be very educational and fun, I know. These days, I am proud of our system and our government. I think the checks and balances we have in place make our system less prone to the kind of nutty stuff that's going on south of the border these days. When it all hangs on one guy, you've got a "yuuuuge" problem if the guy is not stable. But here, our prime minister is just part of the government and there are lots of ways we could deal with him or her, if the person started to ruffle our feathers.
Congrats to those of you who won our little theatre sports contest -- the Subatomic Particles and Tumerachominick! It was a great way to close out the theatre before spring break. And the two groups who performed their final "love" plays -- well done! You took two swings and hit the ball on the second one. Great to see the improvements you were able to make with a bit of thought. Drama Club: learn your lines for the play!
When we come back, we will be in the home stretch for the year. It will fly by. Make sure to keep pushing on to the end -- do your best in everything, write thoughtfully in your journals, and come to school ready to learn all sorts of new things! And now, enjoy your well-deserved time off!
