Dear Parents/Guardians,

Next week we will be having 2 student teachers from SFU joining us at Aubrey to complete their 405 long practicums. The student teachers will be with us from September 14th-November 29th.

Ms. Knowlan has been assigned to work with our class and we are very excited to have her joining us.  Ms Knowlan is a graduate of Kwantlen Polytechnic University with a major in psychology and a minor in counseling. She currently lives in Vancouver with her cat, Trip. When she’s not focused on school and her professional development she loves to cook and bake, explore the great outdoors, and spend time with her family. She is very grateful for the opportunity to learn in our classroom and and get to know each and every single one of you and your children!

Throughout her practicum we will be sure share all of the exciting things we are doing over the coming weeks on our classroom blog http://sd41blogs.ca/smithc/.  You will also see Ms. Knowlan and I at drop off and pick-up.  Please feel free to say hi and introduce yourself while continuing to follow our Covid-19 health and safety guidelines.

Kindest Regards,

Crystal Smith
