Mme. Skye's kindergarten class loved their visit from Mme. Gottschalk! She brought along her Kimochis friends and introduced the class to a special Kimochi named Cloud. Together, they read a story and started a conversation about navigating different emotions 📚☁️

No time for TV or video games. It’s ‘game on!’

Winter and summer, spring and fall; it makes no difference to several boys living on 48 street in Clyde.
They get together often, setting up their hockey goal nets on this quiet street in Clyde to play street hockey. Until recently, they set the nets up in the middle of the street, but always moved the nets and themselves out of the way when the occasional car or pickup approached. Lately, they have set the nets at each side of the street, and it’s ‘game on’ and quickly move to the side to give way for oncoming traffic. Family and neighbours know when the boys are playing - you can hear their excited voices easily, as they have fun with what appears to be their favourite game. And they take their game seriously. One time, it was noted they stood and sang the national anthems of both the U.S. and Canada before starting their game. Another time, during the game, a silver cup was seen - a miniature Stanley Cup.
No one minds them playing on the street, especially the parents. These young fellows cause no harm to anyone, and it is great to see them outside, getting some fast-paced exercise, rather than sitting around at their homes, watching TV or playing video games.
