Primary Performance today

Today, our primary students attended a performance by Xiden Lin, in celebration of the Lunar New Year.  Ms. Lin has a background in opera and is a parent in our school.  She graciously, on very short notice,  sang some traditional songs from her Chinese culture for our students and our students shared some traditions about the Lunar New Year.  Thank you Ms. Lin!

STARFALL

Winter Walk on Wednesdays!

Our Eco team here at Silver Stream would like to continue to encourage our students who do not take the bus, to walk to school.  Winter is no stranger to Canadians and this winter so far, has made it easy to get on our feet and walk to school.   It keeps us healthy and reduces the traffic around the school, making it a safer place.  So don't forget, to WALK on Wednesday and every day if you can. 

PIZZA LUNCH REMINDER

Pizza lunch order forms for the remainder of the school year are due to your child's teacher on Tuesday February 2.  

Message from our Trustee Carol Chan

Although winter still feels far from over some days, we are now halfway through the school year.  With report cards coming home, this is a good time to review progress and celebrate what your children have learned both inside and outside of the classroom. This is also a good time to set goals for the months ahead.

One of our goals set out in the Board of Trustees’ Multi-Year Plan is to “continuously increase student achievement and well-being through a culture of caring and learning.” Developing this supportive culture includes engaging parents/guardians and other members of the school community in public education and working together to create safe and supportive school environments that enable students to thrive.

As parents/guardians, there are many ways you can get engaged in your child’s education and support their learning, including talking with them about school, communicating with teachers, attending school events or school council meetings, and volunteering in the school. However you get involved, know that you are making a difference.

On behalf of the Board of Trustees, I wish you all the best an enjoyable and successful second term.

Carol Chan
