Hello Gr 7 Families,
It was a pleasure to meet you at Meet the Teacher! I look forward to an awesome year with Grade 7 
Also, thank you to all of the parents who came to Friday’s assembly. The students did an excellent job with reading, performing, music and singing as they showed their leadership skills with their buddies.
I hope you have had time over this week to get acquainted with Google Classroom. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask. Further to this, each student has had one or both parents invited as a Google Guardian. This function is solely to provide you updates on the assignments that have been posted in the various subject areas, and you choose the frequency with which these updates occur.
If you are having difficulty figuring out how it works, please watch this very brief tutorial video —–> click here
If you would like go in to your son/daughter’s classroom itself to see their assignments, please use their login info (which they can give you).
I would like to stress that all assignments and class/school events will be posted in classroom and so your child has the option to write in their agenda at school if they wish, but it will not be mandatory. I will still make weekly blog posts, but all of the same updates/news will be in Classroom as well.
Here is what will make the news in Gr. 7 this week:
TUESDAY:
Vancouver College Gr. 10 students prayer visits
FRIDAY:
WALKATHON DAY!
- wear comfortable play clothes…we will walk rain or shine
- no umbrellas please
- bring a pocket snack for the walk
- you may take your child home as soon as we return from the walk
- Dismissal at 1pm
REMINDERS:
Photo Day – October 3rd
Check PE Blog for practice/game updates
Enjoy your week!
Mr. Kirkham
