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.
On Tuesday, the house post carved by Brent Sparrow Jr. will be unveiled at 10:00 am. We are very excited to witness this unveiling and are so grateful for all the hard work that has gone into making it happen for our school. Everyone is welcome to attend. Please note that it will be standing room only and rain or shine.
Teachers have been working on Term 2 report cards, which will go home on Tuesday, March 12th. The students of Division 1 and 2 are preparing for Exhibition - their presentations of learning about important topics, and these will be on display, with oral presentations happening on March 13th and 14th.
I wish you all the best for the last week of February. It's a Leap Year!
Sincerely,
Margaret Paxton (she/her)
Principal

Southlands Elementary PAC is excited to launch the Direct Donation campaign, raising funds for the 2023/20234 school year.
https://vsb.schoolcashonline.com/Fee/Details/1869/196/false/true
Southlands Elementary School takes pride in having built a strong spirit of Giving that is powered by the generous contributions of your time and financial support to help enrich our children’s learning. Over the years, the Direct Donation campaign has helped Southlands deliver new programs and upgraded services to our entire student community that were outside of the VSB funding.
We are seeking to raise $10,000 to fund our basic budgetary demands and enrichment programs that help our children learn and develop the IB Primary Years Program Essential elements: Learner Profile; Transdisciplinary Themes; Concepts, Attitudes; Approaches to Learning and Action. The money raised in this campaign will be used to fund the following items in the 2024-25 school year:
Fundraising Goals
Outdoor Classroom $5,000
Classroom Funds $5,000
THANK YOU IN ADVANCE FOR YOUR GENEROUS SUPPORT!
