4V - Energy Shift Workshop

Energy Shift 4 Workshop


A huge thank you to Miss Lamb who visited each of the three grade four classes today!  Miss Lamb presented Surrey's Energy Shift 4 - a program developed by the city of Surrey to provide students with an opportunity to explore renewable and non-renewable energy sources as well as energy conservation.  We learned about the connection between energy, greenhouse gases and climate change.  The highlight of the workshop was building solar powered cars!

Opportunity to Be a Blessing!



Surrey Christian School is partnering with the Cloverdale Christmas Hamper Program this year.  Each grade has been assigned an item to collect for the program.  Grade four has been asked to collect jars of store bought jam.  If you are able to help us help the Cloverdale Christmas Hamper Program, please send along some jam with your child.

4SA in October/November

Remembrance Day Ceremony

As you know our story-line  this year is Journey Together to Discover God's World. Part of our journey was leading a Remembrance Day chapel where we helped others remember the many men and women who sacrificed their lives fighting for freedom. We never want another world war. We are working on peaceful solutions to the conflicts in our own life. We counted 118,000 red squares to represent all the lives that were lost during the many wars. We poured the squares slowly on the table in front of the school populations so they would have a visual as they remembered as well. BElwo is a short video of our chapel. 

We illustrated In Flanders Fields with our own art so that others too could see the importance of remembering. This will be featured in our next video. 

Enjoy!

4V - Feed Peter Fish!

In 4V, we are exploring the idea that we are blessed to be a blessing.  We are learning that many people around the world do not live the same kind of life that we live.  For the next month, we are collecting coins and bills in a Peter Fish just like the one in the picture above.  Our goal is use this money to bless others.  A number of thoughtful ideas have already been discussed as potential options!  Students are encouraged to bring their own money - whether it is from their piggy bank or earned doing extra chores.  We will be collecting until December 8.
