October 02

Hello Brackendale families,

 

Just like that, September is gone! Another successful week here at Brackendale Elementary, with some powerful learning happening across all grades. On Tuesday, we held our Truth and Reconciliation assembly. Thank you to Ms. Brant's class who put on a fantastic performance. Thank you also to Bella Williams and Roxy Lewis from the Squamish Nation, who performed a beautiful song, reminding us of the importance of this day.

 

We also starting seeing some rainfall and colder temperatures. Please ensure your child is well prepared for whatever October throws our way, with raingear and proper outdoor shoes. It seems as soon as we get into October, our Lost and Found also starts to grow quickly. Please take a minute to look for any misplaced items when you are at school. 

 

While it is still a couple of weeks away, please save the date for a few upcoming events: the PAC movie night on October 16th, as well as the Book Fair and Parent Teacher Interviews on October 21 and 22.
