Good morning Families,

Cannot believe we are almost halfway through the month of June! Here is some information and upcoming dates to note as we celebrate the end of the school year:

Suncrest Water Park- Wednesday June 18 @1pm: Weather Permitting

If your child would like to enjoy cooling down in the water if the weather is warm please have them wearing their swimsuit when they arrive to school. As Suncrest does not have change rooms we recommend already wearing it underneath clothing and we will end early to dry off in the sunshine. If students do not want to get wet there is the playground and an outdoor space to play games or relax on their towel with art, card games, snack etc.

To wear: 

• swim suit under clothing
• sunscreen

To bring: 

• waterproof shoes or sandals (please do not wear all day)
• sun hat or ball cap
• towel
• bag for wet towel
• snack to enjoy at the park

Please refrain from bringing water toys or guns as we still will be following Suncrest’s Code of Conduct.

If the weather is not great we will have another indoor fun activity in our classroom.

Central Park Primary Picnic/ Walking Field Trip (ALL DAY): Tuesday June 24

A field trip form for all Primary Students will be making its way to you shortly. The form will also include a parent section to sign if you would like to join us on the walk there. I will be needing at least a parent or two to stay in the walking field trip ratio as I have Ms. A.  This is an annual Primary trip and the more parents that can come help supervise the better! Here is some information ahead of time.

Like last year we will be leaving the school around 9:30am and will make our walk back around 2:00pm. Drop off and pick up times are at 8:50am and 3:00pm as usual.

Please ensure your child is already wearing:

• their swim suit
• a sun hat/ ball cap
• suncreen
• running shoes **for the walk**

Your child will need to bring (in their backpack or spare bag they can carry on their own):

• water bottle
• sunscreen (to apply again after lunch)
• a towel
• a change of clothes (if needed)
• sandals or water shoes
• Litter-less snack and lunch

Please refrain from bringing water toys or guns as we still will be following Suncrest’s Code of Conduct.

Classroom Clean up: Last two weeks of School

We will be starting our classroom clean up. Students in Division 12 have already started helping me take things down in our classroom, tidying up shelves and cleaning out our spaces to get ready for summer clean up and next school year. Clothing and extra shows will be sent home the last full day of school (June 25) and sometime the last week of school we will begin sending home some of their materials and art in their folders.

Burnaby Public Library Reading Program

As Suncrest Library is closed for the school year I want to encourage families to use the Burnaby Public Library. To encourage your child to read over the summer I recommend signing up for the Summer Reading Program. There are many fun incentives and events this year!

Sign up using this link or visit your local public library for more details!

Thank you for a great school year!

Ms. Toor
