Dear Grade 5 Parents,

As we prepare for the end of the year, there are many reasons to celebrate your child’s’ successes in Grade 5.

The last week of school will be full of exciting activities, including:

Tuesday, June 14th - transition day where the students spend some time in the Grade 6 classrooms

Wednesday, June 15th - Grade 5 BEACH DAY – all day!

Thursday, June 16th - FINAL DAY OF SCHOOL – Gr. 5/6 assembly, yearbooks + portfolios, followed by a traditional Grade Level Party on the 8th floor

For the BEACH DAY, June 15th, we ask that you please participate by joining us at the beach if possible and or sending some party supplies/food/drink to school with your child. For planning this party we will be using a google spreadsheet which can be accessed through this link: https://spreadsheets.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AtjBq8397hRZdEdhaTMxNXJtMW5yd2k2SDIzWmhlUHc&hl=en_US&authkey=CLO2lpsI

In the picture I have added some ‘example’ entries to help get you started. Please state what you can send/bring and the quantity. Also please RSVP if you or any family members are going to meet us at the beach. On the day, the students will walk from school to Deep Water Bay Beach. At the beach we will meet families and friends and set up a BBQ/food/drink area. The students will be swimming and playing games on the beach for the main portion of the day. Please advise your child’s homeroom teacher directly if you have any concerns about your child swimming. Deep Water Bay Beach is a lifegaurd beach. Also, some teachers will also swim with the students and are very strong/experienced swimmers. Permission forms for this activity will be sent home, but if you would to download a softcopy, please click here.

For the final day of school, June 16th, please send a small snack/drink to school with your child to contribute to the Grade Level Party. This party will wrap up the day and you can expect your child to come home with a CDNIS yearbook and their progress report + portfolio. This is not an early dismissal day, buses will leave at 2:45 as usual.

Please don’t hesitate to email me with questions about the Google Spreadsheet.

Thanks and kind regards,

The Grade 5 Team
