Dear Parents,
I think I say this every year at this time but, it is so true that i must say it again....time flies when you are having fun. Can you believe that we have only 8 more days of school? It seems like it just zoomed in...soon I will be taking things off of the walls and all that will be left will be dust and shadow splotches...very sad!!! And yet very exciting. The summer is before us. Sun and beach and family time and sleeping in and of course tons of free reading. I hope I will see you on the beaches...thats where I love to go, so look for me!!

Here is how the end of our year is shaping up:
Monday, June 20th: We will be writing letters to Charlie Puth, telling him how we love his music...we do listen to him every day and then we will be sending it to him and hoping that when he comes to Vancouver on November 3rd, he might want to stop in at Bayview and visit us??? I figure we're just "one call away!!: Ask your child to sing that song for you!! haha...they have it pretty much memorized. In the afternoon after all that writing we will be walking to our final Purple Dragon Karate class. The children are doing really well. It is an amazing program if you are looking for something for your child to do during the summer.

Wednesday, June 22nd: In the morning a summer sun and safety presentation by the nursing students at ubc and in the afternoon a presentation by the Vancouver Public Library about the summer reading program.

Thursday, June 23rd: We will be harvesting our spuds. Do I have a harvester for the morning??? Karen, instead of art????
We will be harvesting, counting and then cooking them up in the afternoon and then feasting on them as well. They are sooo yummy.

Friday, June 24th: Assembly in the morning with a former student. Arthur and his band will be coming in and playing for us. After recess we will be heading to Jericho Beach for our first beach day. That is if the weather is permitting....so do your sun dance now!! We will be walking right after recess and coming back to the school for 300. If there is one parent who would like to walk with me there, I would appreciate it. On that day, no lunch mom is needed (Michelle that's you). Any parents who would like to join us at the beach are more than welcome. On this day, the children are allowed to play on the beach, go into the water up to their knees, but no swimming please as I'm not sure if there will be life guards. Please send your child with a hearty lunch and fluids , a towel, sunscreen, and if you can try to put it all in their backpack, i would appreciate that! 

Monday, June 27th: Beach day again, except we will be leaving at 900 am and returning around 1230. We will have an early lunch and as soon as we finish eating our lunch we will be coming back to Bayview. Gina's play is in the afternoon so we want to be there to support Division 1 who has worked very hard on it. Same rules and requests, hearty lunch, water, towel, sunscreen and no swimming. Once again I could use a parent to walk with me and stay with me there till lunch. Can you let me know if you are available.

Wednesday, June 29th: Last day of school.
Assembly till recess.
Cleanup after recess till lunch.
Movie and popcorn or dance party (Michelle enjoyed it so much this last Friday that I'm sure she will want to be there for this one as well!!) students choice for our last day.
Dismissal, hugs, and report cards!!

Enjoy your Sunday...let's hope the sun comes out!!!
Ps. Sorry no pictures...With all that dancing that went on on Friday, I completely forgot!!
Cheers,
Teri
