It was a wonderful, amazing, fantastic trip to Horne Lake last week. Everyone had a great time with all the activities we did: mini-golf, caving, camping, and swimming. Thanks to the parents for their support for the class and thanks to the students for their cooperation and great attitude!
A reminder that on Thursday, Oct. 8 at 1:30 there is a Parent meeting at school with students in attendance. I will be introducing myself and discussing school issues, then students will be explaining class routines and leading you through some activities. A note was send home today about it.
Our class will be having a student teacher from VIU, Daniel Squizzato, who will be working with our class until Christmas. He is completing his final practicum and I know that the students will be welcoming and show him the great spirit and respectful community we have at Fulford School.
