May Field Trips

Posted on April 27, 2018 by Ms. Watt | 1 comment

In May, division 8 has some exciting adventures planned!
On Monday, May 7th, we will be visiting our neighbour school, South Slope Elementary, for their spectacular musical, Alice in Wonderland. This is a free dress rehearsal performance that we have been invited to see and all parents are welcome to join us! We’ll be leaving at ~12:30 and be returning before 3pm.
On Tuesday, May 8th we will be visiting Burnaby Village Museum for the day. Although we will be taking a bus there, we are looking for parents to join us and help lead a small group around the village.
Please let Ms. Watt know by commenting on this post or writing in your child’s planner if you are able to join us!

Thanks again for your continued support! 🙂

Round One 🏒

Posted on April 12, 2018 by Ms. Watt | 1 comment

The NHL Playoffs have begun!
We have voted to follow the matchup between the Pittsburgh Penguins and the Philadelphia Flyers!
After each game, we’ll graph the game winning team on a pie chart, the score on a bar graph and keep tallies of the Penguins players goals and assists. I wonder whose prediction will be correct at the end of the 1st Round!?
