Wednesday Morning Devotions

In devotions this morning, 4V came to realize that the colder weather has brought both blessings and difficulties to the Lower Mainland. We're currently learning about weather in our science classes, and the snow has added an exciting dimension to our studies - however, through an insightful discussion, we have come to realize that the colder temperatures really affect the homeless people in our community. Students shared their first-hand experiences with the homeless in both Surrey and Vancouver. One particular story shared by a student has inspired me to carry extra granola bars in my purse so that I have something to give out when I see someone in need.

4V Fun in the Snow!

Service Hours Begin This Term

For many, the concept of service hours is a new one. This post is written to help both students and parents understand how this works.

Grade four students are asked to earn a total of 8 service hours between now and early March. Service hours can be earned at home, school or at church. Regular chores should not be counted as service. Some ideas include gardening, snow removal, washing the car, vacuuming out the car, organizing recycling, child minding, chores over and above ones that are regularly done at home, and helping out at church. There may also be opportunities to earn service hours at school doing small jobs for teachers or picking up garbage outside. The key is that students need to actively pursue opportunities rather than expect them to materialize.

We hope that this will help inspire our students to think beyond themselves and seek out opportunities to serve. Please contact your child's teacher if you have any questions.

Happy New Year!

Welcome back to school! We hope that you had a wonderful break and were able to celebrate the birth of Jesus with family and friends. We look forward to another great term together!
