The last in-service of the year was raining “cats and dogs”. The morning started with a study of the work of Laurel Burch. The children followed instructions on how to draw a cat in Burch’s style. The children then used an assortment of medium (chalk pastels, oil pastels, and crayons) to add colour and personality to their cats.

After lunch we ventured out into the rain to walk to the Winnipeg Humane Society (WHS). We learned so much about what is required of people to adopt a pet. We saw many animals that were waiting for their for-ever family.

We had a great day with cats and dogs.
