We had a wonderful day today cheering on our Canadian athletes, especially the men's hockey team. The gym was filled with students as we counted down the last 10 seconds!! All of our athletes have done an amazing job!! Bravo Canada!!
We have our field trip to the Burnaby Village museum next Tuesday, February 25th. Your child should be dressed for the weather and bring a lunch. I still need permission forms and $10 for Nodin, Gavin, Tania, Isabella, Tayvn, Brendan and Cale. So far I have the parents of these children driving: Linnea, Cyrus, Ella, Lily, Nayu, and Samantha. If any other parents are available to drive, even to just drop off and pick up, that would be super. I shall finalize arrangements on Monday with my drivers. Thank you so much for volunteering to do this. All drivers must request the RCMP to fax their driving records to the school and there is also Queensbury paperwork to be filled out (ask our office staff if we have one on file for you). Please contact the local RCMP detachment this weekend to comply with North Van School Board rules and regulations.
Have a great weekend! Go Canada Go!!
Best wishes,
Mrs. Gerri Karr
