LVR Weekly Update - 21Oct23
Good day out there, LVR Community.
This week's pic comes from the fun & festive volleyball intramurals going on at lunch on Wednesdays & Thursdays thanks to our Rec Leadership class. So great to see so many students & staff involved in playing and cheering on the teams. Go Blue Dogs!
Our text function for communicating unexcused absences did not get up and running as planned this past week, but should be good to go this coming week. Parents/guardians, if you did not receive a text to accept this this communication, please contact Secretary Julie at clerical.lvr3@sd8.bc.ca.
On Wednesday, November 1st at 6:30pm in the gym we will be welcoming Interior Health Tobacco & Vapour Reduction Coordinator, Nikki Hargreaves, for an information session for LVR and Trafalgar families. Please join us if you can for this in support of healthy lungs & hearts!
Grad 2024 parents, please be sure to give your contact information through to this year's Graduation Parent Committee Executive through the form at https://forms.gle/4Pt7MftEVJrPbg3U9 to help them out with the many decisions and tasks associated with the family roles for grad.
Drivers & e-bikers, please be sure to slow down and be mindful of pedestrians crossing the school to the school bus and the city bus after school. We are also looking into having crosswalks added in these locations.
