An Ocean of Opportunity

 Individually, we are one drop. Together, we are an ocean.

~ Ryunosuke Satoro

Welcome back for another school year! We’ve been off for a couple of months, but it’s time to get things moving again. What do we have in store for all of you? You’ll just have to wait and see!

This year, we’re lucky to have a few returning Ripplers leading the way again and they are joined by a great group of students who are destined to make their own magnificent ripples. There has been one minor change to our class - we’ve migrated from Division 2 to Division 1 as our classroom is teaming with Grade 7′s only! Whatever is Mrs. Braidwood going to do?

We’re just getting settled into our new routines and learning how we will learn best with each other. We’ll be letting you know how that’s going very soon.

In the meantime, Division 1 is going to let everyone know in their first comments of the year, what they are looking forward to now that they know they are part and parcel of The Ripple Effect. We hope everyone’s year is off to a great start!

    I can’t wait to create my own blog this year. I want to learn lots of stuff and I like creativity, so a blog is perfect for me. There is one question: will we be making the blogs freely or managed?
