Hello Linsford families,
Little Mermaid Jr Play: We are excited to announce that we will be taking our Grade 1-6 students to the Little Mermaid on Thursday, March 20 at MacLab Theatre. The cost will be $5 per student or volunteer. If you are interested in volunteering, please contact your child's teacher. We have a limited number of seats, so not all volunteers will be able to attend. Permission forms are on PowerSchool. All forms and fees are due by Wednesday, March 19 at 3:00 pm or your child will not be able to attend. You can find additional information for the field trip at THIS LINK.
You can CLICK HERE to get a copy of the volunteer form to fill out. Volunteer forms can be emailed to your child's teacher and to lps@blackgold.ca or printed and dropped off at the office.
Don't forget to have your children wear GREEN tomorrow!
Have a wonderful week!

UPCOMING SCHOOL EVENTS
ASSEMBLY UPDATE
We ran short of time to hand out prizes this week, but read an AMAZING story together called The Rabbit Listened. You can enjoy a review of the story by clicking on THIS LINK or the picture of the book below. The students were encouraged to determine which animal they were when there was a tough problem. Next we wondered about if we were a different animal when we supported friends or loved ones through tough situations.
GR. 2 PROJECT
Our grade two students were busy building leprechaun traps this past week for the upcoming St. Patrick's Day.

Congratulations to our Grade 3/4 boys floor hockey team on a very successful tournament this past weekend. They won the bronze medal in a very exciting last game! Thank you to Mrs. Culp, and Mr. McDonald for coaching!
