Hello everyone! My name is Josiah, and this week, I will be writing the blog for #HClass25 for the second time. I am a Grade 7 student at Sir Arthur Currie and I enjoy playing video games, sprinting, and playing sports 🏀🏃 🎮 . I enjoy going to church on Sundays. ✝️


The Rose: Grade 6’s, 7’s and 8’s spent all day outside participating in track & field. Because of this, we had no classwork and we were able to have fun, socialize and be active for the whole day! 🏃‍

The Thorn: 

It was a great week, no thorn to report.


The Bud: Next week, is our Spring Concert. The theme is "At The Movies" I am a member of our band and we are playing three songs - The Avengers Theme, Mission Impossible and Defying Gravity from the movie Wicked. The Currie Chorus (our school choir) is also performing as well as several soloists and ensembles, including Saqeef who is playing piano.

Our band practicing, that's me on saxophone.

Literacy Leanings:

We will be finishing our CNN 10 media literacy projects. We’ll also be working on our "Rants" inspired by the ones from CBC's Rick Mercer Report. We are going to finish writing them and then record them. Stay Tuned. ✍️📝✏️

  Hello everyone! My name is Mohammed, and this week, I will be writing the blog for #HClass25. I am a Grade 6 student at Sir Arthur Currie and I enjoy swimming and food.  The Rose: Last week we watched an episode of “The Twilight Zone” called “The Monsters are due on Maple Street”. This episode of the 1960s television series is about people getting suspicious and paranoid when electric devices and radios stop working after a meteor passes overhead. We connected it to our discussion of critical thinking and making decisions without all the information. We also compare it to a poem called “Witch Hunt” by Neil Peart.  We had leftover chips from our class party, so we got to eat those too. The Thorn: Our fellow classmate Jana is moving. Her last day was Friday [That's sad].We wish her luck at her new school.  The Bud: We are excited to see our 60s “WandaVison” slides. Each week, we look at a different decade and, secretly, four students share a slide with information a...
