Dear students and families of Division 2,

We miss you tremendously. We hope everyone is safe and taking very good care of themselves and their families during this unprecedented time.  Although in-class instruction has been suspended, there will be a continuity of learning for all students. Our principal, Ms. Hartman, recently sent all families an email update. Please check it out! She will be sending updates as information becomes available.

During the week of March 30, you will be able to find details on our district website (www.burnabyschools.ca) about access to the newly created Continuing Learning website. It will contain activities for students at home. The district will send families links to access the new learning website soon.

All teachers will have a virtual staff meeting this Wednesday and further information will be forthcoming as we receive it. Please check our class blog, as I will update it regularly! After our staff meeting, teachers will be calling all students/families between Wednesday-Friday this week. We will be checking in to see how everyone is doing and ask you questions that will help us facilitate our virtual learning journey together. We are looking forward to touch base with everyone!

While COVID-19 has changed how we all interact with one another, it will not take away the connection and relationships we have with each other! Our class is set up with Office 365 already and in the next phase of our learning together, students will access Microsoft Teams on Office 365. This is where we will be posting lessons and activities for students to do at home. We will also have virtual class meetings together.

Thank you for being an amazing and supportive group of students and parents. This next Chapter may look very different, but we will continue to look out for one another, learn together and stay connected. We hope to provide a sense of normalcy and routine to keep students engaged in their education.

Stay safe,

Mme Bianca & Mme Panagiotou
