Explicit instruction of curricular competencies + cross curricular content learning and application + authentic audiences = meaningful, transferable writing skill development. Way to go Katzie Eagles 🦅🙌🏻
Bringing our Katzie School Community together to share and celebrate the visual arts. Huge thanks to our SEL Committee for their planning and work to make it happen!
FRIDAY after school Pro D. That is what @Surrey_Schools Helping Teachers and Teacher do! @PuharichK @jesannwa
Vice Principals in training. They had a lot of advice and ideas for me! I am quickly learning that student voice is the heartbeat of meaningful decisions. It brings life to what we are doing.

Grade 2 and 3 library classes have had so much fun this week designing and building cars. They are excited for the gravity track to arrive next week so they can test, refine and race their vehicles. #sd36tl #sd36learn #sd36adst @bctla
104! One hundred and four! That is how many boxes of food our Katzie community gathered for the Cloverdale Christmas Hamper Program. We are in this life together!

Our newest Learning Resource at Katzie…The Katzie Barnston Island Story Mat! Thank you HT Cheryl Corrick for your work to make this happen. Teachers are very eager to use it as a provocation to literacy and numeracy learning. First up…French and Hunqeminum language exploration.
Rich conversations at Katzie tonight during our site-based mentorship dinner to discuss quality assessment and to collaborate while writing report cards. This staff is so inspiring! – at Surrey, British Columbia

First week of book check out for library classes means a review of book care. Grade 2 students had fun creating book care reminders on sticky notes and placing them inside of books 📚 for Katzie readers. #sd36tl #sd36learn @KatzieSchool
Why did you decide to change roles? This is why…(and 100 other photos with amazing people)… – at Surrey, British Columbia
