From the SVE Admin Team
Almost there... We are in the final stages of assessing student progress, developing learning summaries, and of course looking ahead at plans for next year. See below for some exciting summer opportunities for kids. Last week we had a very exciting Go By Bike week, and had almost 20 gently used bicycles donated which are being given to students based on a submission as to why they would like to win one. We also raised almost $500 for Heart and Stroke research through Jump Rope for Heart. A Grade Four student won a brand new bicycle through the Safe Routes and Active Travel survey.
National Indigenous People's Day - We are looking forward to a day of celebrating on June 21st. If you are interested in volunteering on this special day, and have a Criminal Record check on file, please let your child's teacher know that you are interested.
Any changes for next year: Do you have any plans to move or change schools for next year? Please let the office know as soon as possible to help with our planning. If you, or someone you know has a four year old at home who is going to come to Kindergarten next year, follow this link to the information to help you with that process.
Literacy Tips - There is a lot of research around how children learn to read and write, and we know that oral language plays a large role. Your child listening and speaking with you can actually help them develop as readers. Please see Mrs. Krebbers website here for more ideas and tips.
School Song with lyrics - Mrs. Schjodt put this video together so you can read the lyrics as well.
