Hello and Happy New Year, Southlands Families.

We hope you found our school newsletter in your email in-box on Friday. In it you fill find some updates, reminders and some samples of Kindergarten writing from Div. 11.  This month teachers are preparing the Mid-Year Report Cards. They are using the VSB online reporting tool for the first time, so we wish them the best as they learn to use this new tool. All teachers in Vancouver are now required to use the online tool, so the reports might look slightly different from what you have seen in the past. 

Student Leadership is organizing a Multicultural Day for Friday, January 22nd.  The idea is to celebrate all of the cultures of the families in our school.  Students can come to school dressed in traditional clothing, wear something with the flag or name of a country, bring artifacts from their culture to show classmates, or bring a traditional snack to share - which must be a peanut-free, packaged item. Thanks for helping us celebrate our diversity.

As always, if you have any questions or concerns, please get in touch.

Sincerely,

Margaret Paxton
