First Update
Our Grade five students had an amazing time at Outdoor School this past week. We are looking to secure a booking for next year. Our community program will be going and the plan is to also book for the science program.
For the past three years we have managed to get a subsidiary from YMCA, Strong Kids and support from our school council / parent society. With these donations a trip that usually costs over $300.00 is reduced to parents paying only $20.00. We could set aside $20.00 from Field Study Fees so that the Outdoor School Fees can be covered.
Outdoor School is an extension of our science, LA and math & PE program of studies to name a few and it is expected that all students and their families will look at this as an excellent learning opportunity. Please email me at [email protected] if parents have strong comments either way regarding Outdoor School. I will need to make a commitment one way or another this coming week.
Filling any Available Spots
The office will call families on the "wait list" this week to offer any vacant spots. If the office has called and left a message this past week and have received no answer to confirm attendance at our Valley View Science Program, we will assume that the family will not be attending and we will fill that spot from the wait list. We have a substantial waiting list.
