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.
