Welcome back to a full week of online learning!  I hope you all had a lovely weekend…it certainly was nice to have all that sunshine, wasn’t it?

Just a head’s up that this week is Grade 3’s turn to submit short videos for GCS Thankful Thursday.  On “Thankful Thursdays” staff and students will have the opportunity to send in videos of things they are thankful for during this time of social distancing and online education. This week is our week to share what we are thankful for! If you would like to participate and be featured on GCS Social Media, please send in a short 15-30 sec video to Miss Arthurs at admin@gcspei.ca by Wednesday saying and showing what you are thankful for so we can share what the GCS Family is thankful for.
