FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 25th- NO CLASS

WEDNESDAY SEPTEMBER 30th- NO CLASS

Just a reminder of our Bring Your Parent to School evening on Thursday September 24th. The evening will begin with a brief presentation in the Large Gym for parent/guardian of grade 8 and new students to the Burnaby Central Community at 6:00 PM. Following this presentation grade 8 and new parent/guardians are invited to tour the school and connect with departments. Parent/Guardians of returning students from grades 9-12 are invited to tour the school from 6:30-7:30 to connect with departments. Please note that this is not an opportunity to discuss your individual student with teachers; Parent Teacher interviews will take place later in the fall.

Tutorial (formerly TSS) Time is allocated time once per week for students to make choices and direct their own learning. Students have a choice in where they go and what they do for Tutorial within the parameters set by the school and teachers. Students can use Tutorial to catch up on missed learning or missed assessments, get extra help from teachers, work on group projects, enrichment, and work on passion projects, but students need to make productive use of this time for learning in the building.

Students should plan for Tutorial; they should know where they are going, who they are learning with and what they are learning. Students should be in a Tutorial space during these times; grade 8-10 students must be in a classroom or the library, and grade 11-12 students must also be in a classroom but can use the cafeteria, careers or counselling as a learning space.

We expect all students to make productive use of this time as this is an opportunity for them to make choices for further learning, and we encourage you to support your students in making good use of this time.

Tutorial time will begin this Wednesday, September 23rd. Students should attend Period 2, have nutrition break from 10:20-10:30 and then return to their Period 2 class for a Tutorial lesson. Students will be expected to remain with their Period 2 teachers until the end of Tutorial. Grade 12 students should move to the Large Gym for Tutorial for a CLC presentation.
