Hello Everyone,
I hope you are enjoying a fantastic weekend! I just wanted to send out a quick reminder that we have a busy week coming up and ask you to refer to the June calendar for specific times and dates.
Also, please remember to read with your child daily and sign the spaces in the 'Popsicle Reading' sheet so that he/she can trade it in for a real popsicle later this month.
Please send all library books back to the school by June 10th. Mrs. Kirves will be busy doing inventory in the library and will send home overdue notices where necessary. Also, please send any classroom books that your child may have borrowed throughout the year. Thank you!
Finally, please send in field trip notice forms if you have not done so already.
I will look forward to seeing many of you at the volunteer tea!

Hi Everyone,
I can't believe that it is now June. It has been such a pleasure teaching your children this year and I will enjoy spending my last month with them before we all break for summer holidays.
A notice/calendar will be coming home on Monday so I will keep this entry brief.
We had a great day on Friday with our 'Mind up' celebration. Each student brought home a brochure outlining the day and I encourage you to spend some time reviewing the day with them. Thank you all for sending in your donations to help bring clean water to people in developing countries.
Have a great weekend!

Hello Everyone,
I hope you all had an outstanding weekend!
We are continuing to love our ocean theme in Division 8. The students are very enthusiastic and are super excited to see our classroom transforming into an ocean paradise. I had planned on moving onto an insect theme next week (we have a bug visit tomorrow as you know) but we still have so much we want to learn about the ocean that we have decided to focus on it a bit longer.
Thank you to everyone who sent in milk jugs. We now have enough for 'Mind Up' day.
Just a reminder, if you are doing a spring clean up in your homes and you find any gently used toys or books that might be enjoyed by other children I am happy to accept them for the classroom, particularly lego people, building materials, dolls/clothes etc.
Thanks so much,
Mrs. Roberts

Congratulations to everyone in Division 8 for your outstanding job at the poetry recital today. You all did an amazing job! Not only did you present your poem really well, you were a polite audience when the other speakers were reciting their poems. Jordan, Kaiden, Krystel, Jaden and Grace deserve a big congratulations for learning 3 long poems AND making up their own actions for the shark poem they chose. Well done!
Next week a few students from our class will be entering the speed stacking competition at Westview. Good luck to Jordan, Kaiden, Daniel, Sterling, Stephanie and Tessa! We hope you have a great experience. (A reminder to parents of these children to please submit permission slips if you have not already done so). Thank you!
Happy Mother's Day to all of you moms and grandmas who make such a big difference in your children's lives. They are lucky to have you!
Have a great weekend!

Hi Everyone,
We have had quite a busy and exciting week in Division 8. Our class did an outstanding job of presenting during their musical theater performance on Wednesday. Each and every one of you should be proud of the great job you did. Many of our class members also participated in the Primary Cross Country race the same day. They worked very hard and everyone completed the one kilometer race with a smile on their faces. Well done! We are continuing to explore the ocean and have begun receiving our new Reader's Workshop books which should be practiced at home as they will be presented to the class. Your child has also received new Just Right Reading books and should be reading these at home as well. We have also begun our math unit on measurement and will begin a new round of stations next week.
Have a great weekend, everyone!

Hi Everyone,
Just a few reminders regarding the upcoming week...
Monday is Earth Day. Students can wear green (if they have it) and should come prepared to clean up part of the school grounds (rain or shine). If you have any extra rubber gloves handy, please send them in with your child.
Thursday is an early dismissal day (11:40) and if any of you wish to meet me for a conference, please contact me at (604) 465-9331 or write a note in your child's planner. Friday is a professional day so there is no school for students.
On May 1st the students will be presenting their musical theater songs/dances. This is a school wide assembly and will begin at 12:45 in order to accommodate all of the performances before our primary runners need to leave for the cross country race. We hope you can make it!
Thank you,
Amanda Roberts

Welcome Back!
Hi Everyone,
I hope you all had a wonderful Spring Break. The children came back full of exciting stories to share about their travels, visiting family and Easter egg hunts.
Everyone will be receiving a new calendar/newsletter tomorrow which will outline our coming month. Please note that our pizza lunch is now planned for next Tuesday.
Thank you,
