Dear Grade 12 students,

(1) The Discover China trip provider (Keystone) requires participants to create a profile on their app, which substitutes the printed waiver forms. You’ll also be able to access packing list and detailed itinerary. To register, follow these steps before Friday April 19th.

Go to http://program.keystone-adventures.com and enter the trip ID (171) and your student code (Xu3bdU). Follow the steps and enter your information accurately.

(2) We will have a meeting on Monday at 3:15 in the LGR for all students in Grade 12 to let you know the latest (and likely final) itinerary and answer any questions you might have about the trip.

Thanks!

Mr Mello and the DC12 team

Hello Grade 3-10 Students,

The schedule for our upcoming Spring MAP testing is linked here. Please have a look and make a note of your session timings.

-As usual, MAP is an important Measure of your Academic Progress; the scores will be shared with you and your parents…

-As usual, your teachers will use this data to decide how to best support your learning…

-And, as usual, all you need to do in preparation is bring a charged laptop, get a good night’s rest, eat a nutritious breakfast, and try your best!

Help!

We need your organizational skills in the Activities Office. We need 2-3 students to help sort the uniforms. Easy job but essential! You can choose a day that works for you. It’ll take about 2 hours each time. We need you at the end of April and again at the end of May.

 Possible learning outcomes, again choose ONE,  a different one that you have already chosen:

• become more aware of their own strengths and areas for growth
• undertake challenges that develop new skills
• persevere in action
• work collaboratively with others

 Sign up on Veracross and stop in to see Ms Anna in the Activities Office.
