Portfolio season is now well underway. I am thrilled to celebrate your children’s efforts and accomplishments. It is indeed inspiring to see how much energy and creativity you are putting into supporting your child’s learning!
Thanks to so many parents spreading the word about our program, the Primary Cohort is no full for September, and only a few spots remain for grade 4-7! However, please encourage interested parents to still apply, as there are sometimes changes over the Spring and Summer months.
If you have not already done so, please send me your child’s chosen topic for their Animals of BC Diorama (Primary) or Influential Canadian (Intermediate) projects. These will be due on the students first day back after Spring Break.
Parents of Intermediate students (Grade 4-7) please remember that your child is required to submit substantial evidence in the period between portfolios meetings as well as at portfolios. The next deadline for submissions is April 6th and their “Influential Canadian Project” can form a significant portion of this submission.
The final date for spending this year’s Allotment may be approaching sooner than you think! Please keep tax and shipping costs in mind, and that our office holds back a small amount for field trips and special materials. This year the hold back is approximately $30

Lastly, many of the bulbs we planted in the autumn are poking out of the ground! I invite the students to drop by our garden box on your way to or from the Portfolio meeting.
