Churchill High School – Flexible Learning

Dear Parents,
Hey all! Parent Teachers are tomorrow. Here’s the schedule I’ve compiled so far from the forms I’ve received. I tried my best to get at least as close as possible to the times you’ve requested. If you want to schedule a time with Tanis and I (we are doing the conferences together), please email me back with your preferred time.
Thanks,
Dave

We are continuing our World Cities projects and some groups are ready to start building. As such, this is another call for building materials, from large items like chicken wire to small items such as cereal boxes, pop bottles, juice containers, and basically anything else that could contribute to a skyline.

If these projects come together as well as the students are imagining, they will look fantastic.

LOOKING AHEAD:

Parent-teacher conferences will be held November 26th. We like to meet with all of the parents if possible.

peaceLEARNERS benefit concert will be held on November 26th at the Park Theatre. This is a group of young humanitarians who are working to build a school in Sri Lanka. Your children are welcome to join this group if interested, and the whole Riverview community is welcome to attend the event. Dave and I are two of the teachers involved in this project. It should be a fun night.

Flex students usually volunteer for Winnipeg harvest in December handing out Christmas hampers. Looking for some feedback here in terms of who would be interested in driving, and whether or not you would like your child to be involved in this. It has been a very big eye opener for some in the past, and the students have wanted to continue to volunteer after all the packages had been doled out.

Twice a year we have a flex family potluck, one in December and one in June. It is always a nice gathering and a chance to visit with the families of the students in flex. Again, I’m looking for feedback in terms of interest. There is no point in planning the potluck if interest is lacking. The potluck is typically held on the last week of school before the break, but we could change that if need be.

With thanks for your support, looking forward to seeing you all soon,

Tanis
