Terry Fox Part 2

Today was a very exciting day! We got two new students in our class. The Room 8 kids did an excellent job of making them feel welcome and being great helpers.

 This morning we all participated in the Terry Fox Run. Even though it was very hot out, we all ran and walked the whole time! Thanks to all of the families who sent money for the Terry Fox Foundation. Our school raised over $300!

Here's what the kids had to say about Terry Fox:
 He had a different leg - Isabella 
 He kept running and running and running - Yuan 
 He ran for a very long time - Matthew 
 He runs really fast with his robot leg - Brayden

 We were running because Terry Fox was running - Parker 
 He was running through Canada from far away - Justin 
 He runs so fast - Alfonso 
 He got bad cancer and the doctors couldn't fix it - Charlotte

At the end of the day we had 2 more fire drills. The students did an excellent job of walking quickly and quietly and lining up in front of the school.
