Portable Radio is even more “portable” this year. We have three classes involved in this project: Mrs. Smith’s Grade 5 class at South March Public School in Kanata, Mr. Toft’s Grade 5  and Mr. Baird’s 4/5 classes are both at A. Lorne Cassidy Elementary in Stittsville, Ontario. All three classes are part of the Ottawa Carleton District School Board.
