#SomersfieldAcademy's #StarfishClass had a special visitor yesterday: #MonishaJacobs (Zen’s Mom!) stopped by to share her book, "The Magic in my Mind", dedicated to her daughter. #LocalAuthor #ReadAloud

As part of her #M5PersonalProject, Kate A ’28 wrote a children’s book about a main character with #ADHD and has been visiting P4 and P5 classes to read it aloud, sharing her work beyond the exhibition. Here she is sharing it with the #StarfishClass. #SomersfieldAcademy #IB

The #StarfishClass read #IPromise by #LeBronJames & discussed what it means to show up as their best selves. Class Leaders Piper & Nash led the conversation & the class made a promise to support one another & be positive members of their classroom community. #SomersfieldAcademy

Donal (Zara’s dad) stopped by the Starfish class to share his favourite childhood story, The Selfish Giant by Oscar Wilde. He even brought in Soda bread for the class to taste!

Thank you to Mubeen & Fatima, Celina’s parents, for visiting the #StarfishClass to share chicken biryani & doughnuts while teaching students about Eid. We celebrated a little early ahead of #Eid later this week. The class loved learning about the traditions behind the holiday. #SomersfieldAcademy

Thank you to Sahas’ mum Shruti and Alaya’s mum Avrel for visiting the #StarfishClass to share the Hindu festival of #Holi. Students learned about the “festival of colours,” celebrating spring, renewal, and the triumph of good over evil. #SomersfieldAcademy

The #StarfishClass celebrated #ChineseNewYear with special treats! Students loved tasting Chinese date cookies, green bean cake, mung bean pastries, and beef and pork dumplings while learning about the traditions behind the celebration. Thank you to Nan and Lin for sharing! #SomersfieldAcademy
