Hello Families of Division 11,
Welcome back
I hope you all had a restful and relaxing break. We were so excited to welcome everyone back into the building yesterday. Staff was busy preparing for the safe return of students and planning for online learning should that be needed. More information regarding online learning will be sent out to families if the time comes in order to make as smooth a transition as possible.
Extra clothes and shoes
Please make sure to have your child bring an extra pair of shoes and an extra set of clothes that has been labeled with their names to leave in the classroom.
Library
Our library days are still on Mondays, please ensure your child returns their books before then to get new books to read.
Here are some things to note for this month:
January 14 - Black Excellence Day
On January 14th, thousands of students, educators, and citizens across British Columbia and Canada will wear black shirts in recognition of the struggle for civil rights fought by Black and racialised Canadians.
Commemorating the birthday of Martin Luther King Jr., Black Shirt Day is both a day of education and remembrance, and an invitation to a necessary conversation about racial justice.
January 14 - Fun Lunch
If you have ordered a fun lunch for your child, please bring a ziplock bag for your child's garbage to bring home to dispose of.
Thank you,
Ms. Diep
