Healthy bodies, healthy Earth

At Stevenson School, we want to have healthy bodies and a healthy environment to live in.

We can help our bodies and our Earth by walking to school:

Walk to School With Us on Thursday This Week

October is International Walk to School Month
In celebration of this, Stevenson is having its annual Walk to School Day on Thursday, October 9. We will meet at the Rod’s Football field at 8:35am (Silver Ave. and Ferry Rd.). We will walk along the north side of Silver Ave. to the school. If your child is bussed to school, the bus will drop the students off at the field to join in the walk. Staff will be there to supervise students. Families, please feel free to join us in our walk to school. Once we arrive at the school, we will have a brief assembly to start our day together outside.

We can help our environment by recycling plastic bags:

Bag Up Manitoba
Do you want to make a difference in our community? Stevenson-Britannia School has once again registered for the Plastic Bag Round-Up Challenge for 2014. Please send your child to school with as many plastic bags as they can handle for the month of October!

To keep up with all the things happening at our school, please check the Stevenson Blog regularly. You can even sign up to receive an email every time the blog is updated.

Leaf Man



Today we read a book called Leaf Man. We were inspired by Ms. Dowd's class and the lovely book they sent to us, so we created our own leaf people and wrote a book too!

Here's our book


In our class we have been talking a lot about fall and all of the signs of the changing seasons.

I asked the students "Why do you think the leaves change colour?"

Here's what they said:

Because it is fall and the leaves fall off the trees and they change colour - Charlotte

Because it is fall and the different colours red brown yellow and orange. Because the fall is going to change leaves and it will be winter.-Yuan

Because there are veins on the leaves. -Landyn

Because it changes in fall. - Renee

Because they have veins and they have lots of veins and stuff and water. - Justin

Cause they are in fall. - Brayden

Because it's fall and they fall from the trees and they move and turn brown red and orange and then the trees get bare. - Matthew

Because the trees make them healthy. - Parker

Because I saw one that was pink.- Keane

Because the sun came out. - K

Because winter is coming. - Brodie

Because its coming to be winter. - Alfonso

What signs of fall do you see?
