Band Concert – Palmer, long duration but Debeck kids were amazing compared to other kids.  Maybe because we combine Jr and Sr kids, but still very good Upcoming Events – Bike parade during sports day.  We will check by 7:30am to see about cancellation due to weather. Lunch delivery may be later than 11:30am lunch period Camp Jubilee – Almost everyone will attend and funding was applied for by some families.  Sunshine Fund is topped up annually by PAC and is normally $350-500 (for families that are in need for field trips) – we may look at some other camps that cost less and isn’t as hard to get there.  One year, we tried to change camp location, but teachers preferred to keep it at Jubilee because they knew the system and connections.   Gr. 7’s End of Year Trip – Sea to Sky (replaces Vic Trip that isn’t happening).  Moving Fwd, how do we prevent the future Gr. 7’s grads in missing out on end of year Trip – ie Victoria Trip?  Clarification offered by Joanne saying that Mr. Alison was the only class that arranged for this trip with grant funding in past years.  It was only because it supported his curriculum. It was only in the past 2 years that the other gr. 7 classes joined. Wanda would like to keep a Vic trip as undetermined on a yearly basis. Based on whether or not there are enough teachers to chaperone.   Gr. 7 farewell – Centennial Beach Recognition Assembly – June 26, 10:45am Registration and Staffing – possibility of 15 divisions because City Centre/Cook/Anderson School is full.  Won’t know until September.
