IMPORTANT INFORMATION
MDI Survey
Grades 5 students have been invited to take part in completing the Middle Years Development Instrument (MDI) this week. The MDI is a self-report questionnaire that asks children about their thoughts, feelings, and experiences in school and in the community. The survey questions align with the BC Ministry of Education’s K-12 curriculum which includes a focus on promoting children’s personal and social competencies.  
Dance Program
Starting this week each class will receive their first of four dance lessons provided by the amazing instructors at Just for Kicks Dance Studio. A huge thank you to our PAC for helping to sponsor this program for us. Unfortunately we were not able to run our usual skating program this year due to COVID 19 restrictions.
Grade 5 Basketball
We will be starting a modified grade 5 basketball program this week within our two grade 5 cohorts. Students in Div 2 will be practicing on Mondays at Lunch Recess, while students in Div 1 and Div 3 will be practicing on Thursdays. All grade 5 students are encouraged and welcome to participate.
Safe Arrival Program Volunteers
We are currently looking for volunteers on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday for our Safe Arrival Program. Volunteers would be responsible for calling the homes of students who are absent (unexcused) for the day. This task typically takes 15-30min starting at 8:30am. Please contact Mrs. Spottock at (250) 832-7195 or by email at hil@sd83.bc.ca if you can help with this very important task.
