Well, it has been a very busy few weeks in Mrs. Reilly’s 4th Class room! Here is some of our news.
As always, our class spirit is so important. We work on our behaviour and team work skills always! We had some visitors to help us!
We have three lovely helpers from @SalesforceOrg in our room today. They have joined in in lots of activities! It is so fun. #4thClass
