Please continue to make sure your child(ren) are healthy and feeling well before sending them to school.

If you are late to school (after 9:00 am), your child(ren) must enter through the upper front door by the salmon mural and check-in at the office. The upper front door is now unlocked during the day so no need to call or ring the doorbell. All parents entering the school must enter through the upper front door and check-in at the office.

If your child(ren) will be absent from school, please email souattendance@vsb.bc.ca or phone 604-713-5159 as soon as possible and leave your child's name, division number, the date and whether they will be absent or late. If you phone, you will be required to use a school code. The Southlands school code is 79#.

Hello, Southlands Families,

Thank you to everyone who was able to attend the Goal Setting Conferences last week. If you were not able to schedule an appointment, please reach out to your child's teacher. You can ask for a learning update at any time of year.

We would like to remind everyone to please label coats and jackets. Our Lost and Found is already full! Please feel free to come into the school to look for your child's belongings.

In November, teachers will begin writing Term 1 report cards that will go home on Dec. 1st, 2023.  This will be the first of three report cards for this school year.

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

Sincerely,
Margaret Paxton (she/her)
Principal
Southlands Elementary School
