We Made It!
Neither rain, nor rain, nor rain nor more rain will keep us from Thetis Island! We have safely arrived, are bringing our gear to the cabins, and will then head to dinner. Here's hoping for some sunny weather tomorrow!

Shoes: the new policy
- haveinside shoes
- have outside shoes
- change from inside to/from outside shoes at the school doors
For some reason, dirt loves to travel in to our school by catching a ride on students' shoes. We hope this action will make our school a cleaner place.

Eric Walters
Today Eric Walters came and spoke to our grade 6 and 7 students at the Surrey Public Library (Fleetwood Branch). While talking about his books, he also gave some great advice to students with great lines like: "Please do not pass up the opportunity to do the right thing!" You can learn more about Eric and his books at http://www.ericwalters.net/ericwalters/homepage.html. You can also check out some of his contributions on YouTube such as Alexandria of Africa:
Egg Drop FAQ
Are we allowed to use a bag as a parachute? No, parachutes!
What types of materials are we allowed to use? Anything you want that’s not on the do not
use list.
Can we use a box? You
can use pieces from a box.
Are we working on this in class? Nope.
Can we rip pillows and use the insides? Sure.
How high is the roof from the ground? About two stories high. Maybe 40 feet or so. It’s high enough to break an egg if dropped
unprotected.
Are we doing this in joint?
This is a solo project though you can solicit help from your family
members.
Are we allowed on the roof?
The roof is for the egg drop projects.
Can we use wings? To
create drag—sure.
If it’s bigger than the rules state, what happens? Probably not much, though you may be docked
design points. This is more of a
guideline than a hard rule.
Can we do a part of a character or must it be the entire
character? A portion is fine. Remember we have just chosen a theme for you.
Can we use electronics?
Nope. This is a free fall
exercise.
Can we do food? Sure,
so long as it matches the theme.
Can we use helium?
Um, let’s say no to this one.
Can we use play dough? Sure.
Can we ‘cartoonize’ anything we want, such as One
Direction? Um, let’s say no.
Can we use pieces of a stuffed animal? Sure.
Can we use bubble wrap? It’s not mentioned in the
rules. J
Can we use Lego? No.
Can we use marshmallows? Sure.
Can we use Lego? No.
Can we use marshmallows? Sure.
