REMINDER:
Please remember to check our school website regularly for more infor-
mation on upcoming programs for students etc.
CONTACT INFORMATION
Throughout the schoolyear, please inform the office of any changes to the information you pro-vided on the verification Form. It is very im-portant that we are able to contact parents im-mediately by phone in the case of an emergen-cy. The phone numbers need to be current and working, voice “mail boxes” not full and you have made a plan with the Emergency Contacts so then can get ahold of you. Thanks you.
Read our Newsletters On-line!
We are trying to reduce the amount of paper that we use/copy so each edition of our newsletter will be sent to you via email if you have an email account. If you miss an edition, it is posted on our school website at:
https://www.vsb.bc.ca/schools/dr-george-m-weir. Each edition includes a monthly calendar of events so you will know what is happening around the school. Make sure to let the office staff know if you change your email address. Please note: A few paper copies will be available in the office.

JUNIOR BOYS SOC-CER TEAM
This year, our enthusi-astic and energetic grades 5, 6, and 7 boys came together to rep-resent Weir School in soccer. Our junior and senior boys teams demonstrated a com-mitment to themselves, their teammates, and their coach, Dan Petko-vich. They practiced hard and competed harder. Most of all, they consistently demonstrated Wolf pride and Wolf spirit as they represented Weir school throughout the season. Thank you
Coach Petkovich for instilling hard work, respect, and pride into your team. They have made us proud.
