Eagle Bay Information

Information on the Montessori 4/5/6 Eagle Bay Trip

Dear Parents:

Here are a few points to keep in mind about our trip to Eagle Bay on Monday.

1.We ask that no parents come out to the camp unless you have been organized as an overnight chaperone. You can appreciate how difficult it will be for camp staff to have unexpected parents show up at the camp. All events are run by camp counsellors, and thus, parent assistance beyond what we have asked for is not necessary.

2.Dress code: Please be reminded that this is a school district function, and as a result, dress code expectations still apply. With that being said, we would like to ask the children to refrain from wearing spaghetti strapped tops.

3.On Monday May 31st the students will arrive at the school at the regular time. They can drop their supplies in their classrooms (clearly marked with their name on everything) and will attend class until around 10:00. We ask that any parent chaperone be at the school for a meeting by 9:15 am. On June 2nd, students will return to the school around 12:00pm and then will be dismissed to go home. Please arrange for someone to be at the school to pick up you son or daughter.

4.School Rules: Again, as this is a school function, proper behaviour is expected and those who do not abide by the school rules will be dealt with accordingly. Students are expected to respect and obey not only the teachers, but the camp counsellors and parent helpers.

5.Emergency Contact: If parents need to contact their child, please call the camp office @ 250-675-2122

6.If your child requires specific medication to be administered while he/she is at the camp, please have it, in its original container if possible, clearly marked with instructions and your son or daughter's name. All medication will be kept in the possession of the teachers and given out accordingly. You also need to make sure you fill out a form at the office giving us permission to distribute medication to your child if you have not already done so this year.

Thank you for taking the time to read this information. We know that we will all have a wonderful time during our visit to Eagle Bay.
