Computer science special event

-
Dear Grade 3 families,

On December 9th, 2019 neighbouring educators Canadian Academy will be hosting a special Computer Science event with Ms. Emma Haruka Iwao.

Emma is from Osaka and currently works with a team at Google (U.S.A) who recently broke a world record in the computer sciences sphere!

Grades 3 - 6 have been invited to attend this exciting event where Emma will talk about life as a software engineer and how her childhood dream has come true.
We will be at Canadian Academy from 14:25 - 15:15 and will return to school in time for a 15:30 dismissal. However, for those learners who are interested in extending their experience, additional coding activities will be offered from 15:15 onwards in the same venue. If your child would like to stay on after the talk, please send an email to their homeroom teacher - your child must then be collected from Canadian Academy or be allowed to make their own way home.

Learning from home in our virtual classroom

-
Dear Grade 3 families, We are now completing our first full week of learning online. It has been challenging and exciting and (I think) at times a little confusing. I really, really appreciate all your support as we adjust to our current circumstances. I wanted to say how proud I am of Grade 3 learners. They have shown themselves to be independent and Thinkers. I have seen some truly impressive and insightful work being shared over the past week. I am also impressed at how well and how quickly learners have developed the technology skills required to communicate and succeed in a virtual classroom. Stay stay, stay happy and health. I hope to see everyone again soon.

Dear parents of Grade 3 - 6, A message from the DSKI school office: Regarding the ski trip, we have confirmed today that there are no foreign groups booked at the Blue Ridge Resort next week, where our students will be staying. The first night they will be alone, and the next two, some Japanese guests will stay. They are not accepting bookings from Coronavirus affected areas. They also have all sensible precautions in place. So we are going to continue with the ski trip booking. If things do change between now and next week we will of course take action.
