Student Learning Survey

Every year, students in grade 4, as well as parents, staff and principals/vice-principals are requested to respond to the Student Learning Survey. Please see the Deputy Minister’s Bulletin for more information. The survey is open until April 28, 2023. If you are interested in filling out this survey, please click on this link. You do not need a login code to access the survey. You do not need to be a parent of a student in grade 4 to access the survey either. All grade 4 students have already filled out this survey before Spring Break.

Anti-Racism & Equity Q&A

Ask Dr. Lisa Gunderson (award winning educator, community speaker, organizer, leader, and equity consultant and trainer!) ANY question regarding equity, understanding, disrupting, and dismantling racism and other “isms”. This is a wonderful opportunity for people to ask questions directly or anonymously. See oneloveconsulting.com for more info and resources.

5th Tsartlip Beaver Group

The 5th Tsartlip Scout Group is located in Cordova Bay and meets regularly at 813 Claremont Ave. Our Cub, Scout, Venturer and Rover sections welcome boys and girls aged 8-18. We are looking for interest in starting a Beaver group for children 5-7 years old. In order to discuss more and gauge interest we will host a welcome meeting on Thursday the 20th of April at 6pm at 813 Claremont (Cordova Bay United Church).

Beaver-aged youth will be invited to do a trial Beaver's meeting with games and activities. Parents and Guardians will stay to watch and connect with Scouters (volunteer leaders) to learn more about what is involved. Please contact our leaders via our scouts email at 5thTsartlip@scouts.ca. If you cannot attend but are interested to have your child join please also let us know.   Our Cubs are already up and running and can also welcome more participants (boys and girls age 8-10). 
 
Our Group Commissioner for all of 5th Tsartlip can also answer your questions and is reachable at 5thTsartlip@scouts.ca
