A fantastic event is coming up at Burnaby Central. On Thursday, December 4^th Burnaby Central will be hosting the British Columbia Post-Secondary College & University Fair. This event will showcase 20 different institutions from all over British Columbia. Each university and college will have a booth set up. It will be a great opportunity to find out information and ask questions.

Simon Fraser University (SFU) will also be putting on two presentations about SFU admissions information. I encourage all grades, especially grades 10 to 12, to come out and begin to research some possibilities for continuing education after high school.

Schedule of Events:

6:00-7:45pm- University and College fair (Burnaby Central Commons)

6:00-6:30pm‐ Simon Fraser University Presentation 1 (Burnaby Central Theatre)

6:35‐7:05pm‐ Simon Fraser University Presentation 2 (Burnaby Central Theatre)

The Ministry of Education K-12 Student Reporting Policy requires that student self-reflection on Core Competencies and goal setting be included in at least two written Learning Updates and the Summary of Learning.

In order to reach this requirement, all students from grade 8-12 will be required to complete a goal setting exercise choosing one of the Core Competencies. Each student’s assignment has been automatically assigned in their Office 365 account. Students will see the assignment loaded into a TEAM according to their grade beginning November 24.

Students will be given time during classes from November 24 – November 28 to complete this online assignment. Upon completion, a copy of the student assignment will be automatically emailed to parents / guardians as well as to students.

Students will complete 2 additional online assignments during the school year. The second assignment will check the progress of their goal setting assignment in February as well as complete a self reflection of their goal setting assignment in May. Each exercise will require approximately 15 minutes to complete.
