Updates after Easter

Welcome back everyone!  For most of us, today is the beginning of our 2nd full week back after Easter.  For the Grade 11s, they are back to school today after returning from Europe late Friday night.  Welcome home!

I thought this would be a good time to update everyone on what's going on in the world of Miss Campbell's classes (and life in general).

Computers 8M/8L - New edits: Love, Friendship, Art.  Stay tuned to the blog for more photo editing highlights from your classmates (or yourself!) after report cards are done.

IP 10T/10IC - Word and Pages resumes should be handed in now.  If they are not yet complete, please finish them asap and submit them to the appropriate drop box so that I can mark them.  Our new project is to create a photo book (8x8 or 8x11) on Shutterfly.  You do not need to purchase your photo book at the end of the project, but it is an option if you'd like.

Choral 10-20-30 - Our next performance is Saturday, May 4th at the Catholic Education Foundation Gala.  We will be discussing repertoire shortly (nothing too new or difficult to learn).

Jazz Choir 10-20-30 - New songs: One Fine Day, Singin' in the Rain, Fever.

Band 7-12 - Working on music for a pop concert at the end of the year.  Practice charts are now overdue but if you have a March chart that you still want to hand in, I will accept it late.

Drama 10 - Today we did partner scenes that had to include a shiver/twitch/stammer/shuffle.  It is always interesting to see how different your stories end up!

And now for some fun photo updates from my trip to Mexico!

I got engaged!  Thank you so much for all of your congratulations - we are very excited!

I went bungy jumping just for kicks.  Even after doing 2 previous jumps, this was still scary!

We went parasailing and got super awesome views of the Caribbean blue! :)

Checking out "El Castillo" at Chichen Itza (Mayan ruins)

Swimming in a subterranean river at Xplor eco-tourism park

Ziplining at Selvatica Extreme Canopy Tour - so fun!

And now we're back to school after our excellent adventures (or our relaxing week at home where we stayed in pyjamas for 5 days.... depending on the person...), and can you believe we are only just over 2 months away from graduation?!  That's only 9 weeks!  Amazing!  This year is flying by.
