Mrs. Basso and Mrs. Walji's Gr. 2/3 Class | 2023-2024
We were thrilled to see our students showcase their hard work!
We hope you enjoyed your child’s conference and celebrated the many successes they shared with you.
It was wonderful for us to see their excitement and to see you go through their agenda of fun activities with them.
Thank you again for your huge support at home in your child’s learning.
We are having a fantastic year together!
Our class, along with Div. 16, put on a tremendous performance this afternoon for members of the Ministry of Education, Burnaby School District, and various media personnel. We were incredibly proud of our students, especially with such a short timeframe to prepare and learn the song and ribbon dance.
A big thank you to Ms. Seah, our music teacher, who selected our classes to perform for this special event.
We received numerous compliments from our guests about our students- how friendly, well-behaved, cooperative, and happy they were today.

We were so excited to see many faces at our first ever Family Movie Night at Brentwood Park! The turnout for both shows was fantastic.
Thank you to those who attended and supported this fundraising initiative for our Grade 7’s… it was recognized and appreciated. And a special thank you to our school’s PAC who provided the movie license for our school to help make this a successful community event.
We hope you all had a fun evening!
We have been practicing our balance, coordination, flexibility, strength, and agility skills in our gymnastics unit!
We are having a lot of fun testing out many new skills; goals have been set!
As per district safety precautions, we will be indoors when the the solar eclipse takes place tomorrow; we will try to watch it live online.
From the Canadian Space Agency:
On , a spectacular and rare celestial event is set to unfold over Canada, the United States and Mexico – a total solar eclipse. As the Moon aligns perfectly between Earth and the Sun, temporary darkness will sweep across parts of the country, captivating countless spectators.

Div. 12 went on a mini egg hunt! For some students, this was their first hunt!
Students were excited to discover either a sweet treat and/or a few coins inside their eggs to use toward their next shopping day. They added up their coins to record into their math mat notebooks.
Each student was tasked to find three eggs each… and the weather turned out to be the perfect backdrop! Hello to some springtime fun!
The sun was shining as we traveled the short distance to Kitchener Elementary for Primary Days of Music. We were the largest school there!
We gathered together with four other schools to sing songs together and to hear each school perform their own few songs. We had a delightful time.
A big thank you to Leven’s mom for accompanying us on this trip to help supervise. We are so grateful!

We had a fun morning skating together!
We saw a lot of smiles, patience, resilience when falling, and helping hands to those new to skating. It was wonderful to see. We wish we could fit in one more skating session!
Thank you to all the parents who helped to drive, tie skates, fit helmets, snap photos, and supervise.
We appreciated ALL the help and flexibility today!
We had our official Grand Opening of our corner store with Mrs. Kimmie present to mark the occasion!

We were incredibly proud of our class today.
Our students (shop employees and customers) each contributed patience, calmness, kindness, and respect to make our Grand Opening day a success. They shared their favourite moments and what exactly made this special experience memorable for each of them.
Thank you to all the families who donated items for our store. Today was filled with happy customers and excited shop cashiers, clerks and security guards. We can’t wait for the next shopping day!
