I am happy to announce that we have an amazing student teacher from UBC who will be working in our classroom this school year. Her name is Kyla. She started today and students enjoyed having her in our classroom. She will be visiting every Thursday. She will complete a 2 week practicum this term, as well as a 10 week praticum during the third term. We look forward to learning together with Kyla!
Welcome, Kyla!
This year, your child will have the opportunity to work with a few different teachers, which is great preparation for high school. It will help them get comfortable with different teaching styles, expectations, and classrooms.
Their teachers will be:
Health and Career Education: Ms. Cerminara (Wednesday)
Music: Ms. Petrovska (Tuesday and Friday)
French: Ms. Willis (Thursday)
We’re looking forward to a great year of learning and helping students build confidence and independence as they prepare for high school!
Dear families,
As we move through the school year, one of our key goals is helping students develop stronger organizational skills and responsible work habits. Completing assignments on time and putting forth their best effort are essential skills—not just for school success, but for life!
To support this, our class blog is a valuable tool for students and families. It provides regular updates on assignments, due dates, and learning goals. We encourage students to write in their agendas daily and double check the blog regularly to stay organized and prioritize their schoolwork. This habit helps students take ownership of their learning and manage their time effectively
We also invite parents to check the blog alongside their child. Your involvement at home reinforces the importance of staying on top of school responsibilities and helps students build independence and accountability.
In class, students are expected to submit assignments on time and to ensure their work reflects their full potential. We emphasize quality over speed, and we support students in developing the skills they need to revise, reflect, and grow as learners.
Thank you for your ongoing support!
With gratitude,
Ms. Bianca Lavorata
Dear Families,
We have many new families who have joined our wonderful community and I want to ensure everyone is aware of Brentwood Park’s Subsidized Lunch Program. This is the information directly from our school website:
Subsidized Accounts – Please access the special registration link by CLICKING HERE to sign up for a Lunch Lady Subsidized Account. Subsidized accounts are intended to support families who are experiencing food security challenges and financial hardships. We ask that you notify us if your financial circumstances change. (We promise to respect your privacy. Subsidy information will only be shared with the principal, school secretary, and The Lunch Lady as required) There is no cost for the meal, but you will be asked at the end to VERIFY your order.
We are looking forward to a great year together in Division 6!
