Have a Wonderful Christmas Break!

It has been a very busy term and at the Challenge Centre, and I have just finished working with the grade three's.  In the new year, I will be starting my Book Clubs, as well as an exciting math program, and rounding out January with a debating seminar for grade six students.

 I wish all my colleagues and parents and students a wonderful, relaxing, and renewing holiday season.  Spend your time with those individuals important to you and recharge your batteries.  

Here are some photos of the Gingerbread Houses at Sutton Place Hotel...our family tradition is to visit and vote on our favourite gingerbread scene.   There are many lower mainland schools that participate in this event through their culinary arts programs.   This year, I especially liked the one above...of Gastown!  Look at the detail in the windows and the cobblestone sidewalks!

The one below, was also a favourite...created by Tupper students.  I loved the simplicity and the strong linear shapes and the fantastic Christmas Tree.

See you in 2013!
