Meet the Seniors
Today is one of my favourite days of the school year when we get to visit the grade 7s in the gym and learn about all of their great accomplishments, hobbies, interests and favourite things. It’s so exciting for me to see my past students so confidently display themselves for the visiting classes.

Way to go grade 7s! So proud of who you’ve become. Division 9 students, what was your favourite thing you saw today on display? Was there a grade 7 that had very similiar hobbies /interests as you!? What did you have in common?

Student Led Conferences
Next Wednesday April 16th, are Nelson’s annual Student Led Conferences. I cannot wait as it’s my favourite time of the year in our classroom. I love to see the pride and excitement the kids have when sharing their work with a loved one.
Please come visit our classroom between 2:10-4:00 and 5:00-6:00. The classroom will be closed for a dinner break from 4:00-5:00. You will be read to, presented work, shown around the classroom and asked to play a game. Please come ready to celebrate your child’s achievements.
This will be completely led by your child and not a time to discuss their progress. I would be happy to meet with you at another time to discuss their report card etc.
If possible, please do not bring any other children so the focus can be on the child sharing.
Thank you! Any questions? stephanie.watt@burnabyschools.ca
