Goodbye to our salmon friends! We successfully released 97 wild salmon back into their home watershed, where in several weeks they will head down river to the mouth of the river where they will fatten up, and get used to the salt water. Then, in a month or more, with millions of others, they will soon migrate out of Burrard Inlet to spend the next 4 years in the open Pacific Ocean. Just think, thanks to our efforts, 4 years from now when our students are in Grades 9 and 10, those same salmon will return at the end of their lives to spawn in our rivers and perpetuate the life cycle!
Reminder: It is a District-wide Professional Day on Monday. Students do not attend school.
