The electronic translation service is hosted by Google Translate. The quality of the translation will vary in some of the languages offered by Google. Google Translate is a free service and currently offers translation in over 50 languages, although an impressive number, this does not capture all languages or dialects. The basic translation’s goal is to capture the general intention of the original English material.
The Vancouver School Board does not guarantee the quality, accuracy or completeness of any translated information. Before you act on translated information, the Division encourages you to confirm any facts that are important to you and affect any decisions you may make.
The Vancouver School Board is committed to parent, family and community engagement, and it is our hope that by providing this tool on our website that we are making our information more accessible to families whose first language is not English and thereby enabling better engagement in public education.
Choir is an optional extra-curricular program for students from Grades 3-7. Students are expected to attend practices at lunch on Tuesdays. Some practices may occur before or after school when preparing for special events. The choir performs in our annual musical and assemblies, as well as at other locations outside the school throughout the school year. Mr. de Verteuil, our Music teacher, sponsors the choir.
There are many optional extra-curricular team sports including:
Cross Country in September/October for Grades K-7
Soccer
Volleyball Grades 6-7
Basketball Grades 6-7
Track and Field Grades 1-7
Every year our Grade Seven students attend a 5 day outdoor education experience at Strathcona Park Lodge on Vancouver Island. The Grade 7 teachers for the current school year sponsor this program.
