Hello families!

This is a reminder that class photo day is this Thursday, April 18. We will be one of the first classes to be photographed, so please be on time. They will not wait for any late students to arrive.

Many thanks!

Hello families, 

I hope you had a great weekend. This week is Literacy Week! I wanted to let you know about the different school wide activities that will be happening this week. On Thursday, we will be doing a book swap. We are asking families to send in 1 school age book your child no longer reads. Every child will be bringing home a new book on Thursday. 

This weeks activities:

Tuesday, January 23

• Dress up as your favourite book character day 
• school-wide writing activity in the gym based on the anchor book “The Three Little Mittens” by Linda Bailey. Students are asked to bring a single/odd mitten or sock for this activity.

Wednesday, January 24

• Pajama Day is on Wednesday
• Cozy Reading/Fort Reading with buddy class. This is also pajama day and students can bring blankets, stuffies, and flashlights to cozy up and read together in creative ways.

Thursday, January 25

• Book swap
• Guest reader

Friday, January 26

• Read-Your-Shirt Day (wear a shirt with any kind of writing on it)

Many Thanks!

Ms. Quin

 

 

 

Hello families,

I just checked and all Burnaby schools are closed again today.

Hopefully we’ll see you all tomorrow.

Hello families,

I know our district website is slow due to high website traffic so I thought I’d post this here in case you didn’t see the announcement yet.

Have a great Snow Day!

Hello Families,

Sorry for the last minute reminder, but I wanted to let you know that our school is having our family book fair session today from 3-5pm. You are welcome to join your child in our school library to browse the Scholastic book fair. (This is optional)

Many thanks

Ms. Quin

Hello families,

I hope you’re having a great weekend! An email was sent out to all families at our school regarding welcoming conversations next week on Tuesday, September 26 & Thursday, September 28. This email was sent to the kindergarten families by mistake. We already had our welcoming conversations during gradual entry so we will not be meeting with families next week. I’m sorry for the confusion. I will try and cancel the meetings that have already been booked. 

A few reminders about upcoming important dates:

Thursday, September 28^:

• • • there is a school wide early dismissal at 1:47pm. Please pick your child up at our normal pick up location.
    • we will acknowledge the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. We encourage our school community to wear orange on September 28th to honour the survivors of residential schools in Canada. We will have our Orange Shirt Day assembly in the afternoon before the early dismissal.

Friday, September 29 – Professional Development Day (No school)

Monday, October 2 – National Day for Truth and Reconciliation (No school)

Tuesday, October 3 – Hot lunch starts. If you know your child isn’t going to like what is being served on a specific day, please send a home lunch on that day. 

Finally, this is a reminder to please check your child’s yellow communication folder every day for notices coming home. If you have not sent back the permission form for your child’s photos to be included in posts for my class blog, please send it in as soon as possible. I will not be able to post photos of your child unless that form is sent back with approval. 

I will also send this message as an email since not everyone has subscribed to my blog. Sorry for the duplication if you’ve already subscribed to my blog, but I need all parents to know that there will be no meetings next week. 

Many thanks,

Ms. Quin
