Dear Brookes Westshore families and friends,
As we wrap up May and head into June, there is a great energy around the school. Our MYP3 students had a good time on their Potlatch camping trip. Our Grade 4/5 and MYP1/2 students are getting ready for their Camp Thunderbird trips next week. These end-of-year field trips are a fun way to celebrate all the learning and growing our students have done this year.
While excitement builds, meaningful learning continues across all year levels. Thank you for your ongoing support as we make the most of these final weeks together!
I would like to remind you that the last week of ASAs is June 9th - 13th, and that the last day of school is June 20th and is a noon dismissal.
With gratitude,
Dr. Rui Li
Principal
We have a request for newspapers for an upcoming MYP3 project! The newspapers can be older, newer, small stacks or big stacks! MYP3 will be experimenting with papier mâché in the coming weeks.
Last year's MYP Drama performances.
MYP1 and MYP2 Drama Performances
We would like to invite you to the school on Tuesday, June 17th from 3:45 - 5:45pm for an afternoon of entertainment! The MYP1 and MYP2 students have been working hard and are looking forward to having the opportunity to share their work with you.
On the 17th students will report directly to the dining hall at 3:20pm where they will complete final preparations for their performances.
Seating for guests will commence at 3:35pm. If you arrive earlier, you are welcome to wait in the courtyard.
Fun at Wildplay!
Dorm students enjoyed a hike to Mystic Beach last week - even braving the cold Pacific Ocean for a dip!
Here are some more student highlights collected and presented by the SLC Student Welfare Committee.
