Happy Weekend!

Thank you to everyone for a great field trip on Friday! A special thank you to our parent volunteers, Emma’s mom, Amy’s dad and Naomi’s mom, too. We really appreciate your time. Students enjoyed the Body Works gallery that had some human organ specimens to look at, on loan from the UBC library. We enjoyed watching the 45 minute IMAX film Human Body which showed the complete workings of the human body, giving us all a very realistic glimpse of our insides. Everyone had an opportunity to enjoy all the other galleries, and I noted our group particularly enjoyed the Eureka Lab with the shooting water cannons and plastic ball mazes, as well as the KEVA block room where thousands of KEVA blocks were available for building complex structures. It was a beautiful day, with a gorgeous view of False Creek. Thank you for your support to allow the students to go.

Caribou Test results are available online. Congratulations to all who participated. The Caribou Cup is an ongoing competition through the year, such that scores, including time and points, are accumulated and ranked with all other students of the same age in the world. Grade 4 will continue to be free, but grade 5 has to pay for future competition dates. If your child is interested in continuing, we can make arrangements for this.

Have a great weekend!
