Fort Day Friday, October 26th

Grade 5's Fort Day


On the morning of Friday, October 26, students will be participating in baking bannock and other activities related to our Socials unit about forts and the fur trade.  It would be helpful to have a couple of parents helping out in the kitchen for the morning (from approximately 9:00am-12:00pm).  If you are able to volunteer, please contact Mrs. Gysbers.

Students will have the option to dress up like a person living or working in Fort Langley or like one of the main characters in Cariboo Runaway.

Check out the websites for further information about forts, the fur trade and Fort Langley:
