Dear Strongstart Families,
Well here we are two seasons later, the first day of
Autumn of the 20/21 school year is upon us.
I hope you were able to relax and enjoy the summer with your
Family staying Safe and Healthy!
I was honored to help out with Kindergarten gradual entry
the last 2 weeks. I am Truly impressed with the hand washing
skills the Children have acquired over your time together!
Great job Mom’s and Dad’s and to All who have taught this
important life saving skill to a child, KEEP MODELING THIS!!!
This year continues to be a roller-coaster of uncertainties with
many changes and unknowns.
Please Stay Calm and take care of yourselves and Each other!
We Will get through this Together!
Everyone is wondering, When will Strongstart open?
Here is the message from the School District:
In September 2020, Burnaby Strongstart BC programs
will continue to engage in outreach to Families via e-mail
phone calls and offering Strongstart services online.
There is currently no in person Strongstart BC
in Burnaby Schools.
We are looking at a variety of options that will enable us
to offer in-person Strongstart BC programs.
Programs will be at a reduced capacity that are
consistent with stage 2 of the K-12 Restart plan.
“Reduced capacity” means that we will limit the
number of Families attending to maintain safe physical distancing.
We will reduce the number of hours per day and/or days per week
of Strongstart BC operations to accommodate cleaning and disinfecting protocols.
Please continue to visit our website for the latest updates.
We look forward to when we can welcome you back in person!
I am looking forward to connecting with you All again!
Starting September 21st, I will be back to support you remotely.
Please do not hesitate to send me an e-mail if I can help in any way.
This week will be mostly reconnection, I will try calling you from
the Classroom phone (#604-296-9024-ext.642126), there is No
voice mail option, but Please feel free to call back or leave me
an e-mail.
