Diversity in 4S


4S has been studying the European explorers who came to Canada starting in the 1400's. Looking now at our own ancestry we are amazed at how wonderfully diverse we are. Over 20 countries are represented in our class history.

Fort Langley Field Trip - March 6




Have what it takes to be a fur trader? Build a bucket, watch a blacksmith demonstration, and carry a fur bale. Taste life without electricity or privacy in the Servants’ Quarters. If you think you can do it, sign a five-year company contract with pen and ink in the Big House. Find out how the fur trade led to the British proclaiming BC a Crown Colony at Fort Langley in 1858.

We are in need of three parents from each class to help lead us through the fort and come with us on the bus. We will take the first three volunteers who respond via email or a note in their child's planner. (We can take a few additional parents if they are willing to pay the $6.55 themselves.)

The plan is to leave the middle campus by bus at 9:10am and return at approximately 12:30 pm.

Practicing French Gestures



Since the beginning of January, grade four students have been learning A LOT of new French vocabulary AND a lot of gestures to help them understand the meaning of the words. To assist students with learning all of the new vocabulary, videos are being posted for them to WATCH AND PRACTICE.

Weekly homework for all grade four French students is a minimum of 15 minutes of gesture practice twice a week. Parents are asked to note practice times in their child's planner AND initial them. Weeks are graded from Wednesday to Wednesday. Planners will be checked every Wednesday.

Parents: thank you in advance for your help and support!
Students: keep up the good work, as this will speed up our progress and allow us to start the play, 'Les Trois Petits Cochons!'
