Message from Burnaby DPAC
We really need your help! We have just a few more spots to fill and need help getting the word out to all parents. Please send to your Chairs and parent volunteers. Thank you.
Dear Parent Volunteers:
Thanks to so many volunteers who have come forward. We are in need of parent volunteers for the last few dates now. Would you be interested in participating at a school visit? Details can be found attached with the
list of times and dates. Please be sure to pass along this invitation to all the members of your SPC and any other parents. School visits give parents an excellent opportunity to network, see other best practices and a
fresh perspective. This is a great opportunity - which is available to all parents - to learn and share what is happening in another school. Please let us know ASAP which one(s) you would be interested in volunteering for.
Please send the dates you are available and your child(ren)'s school(s) to spc@burnabydpac.com.
Thank you.

Fun, free and educational activity for students
Dear Teachers/Program Directors/Community Partners,
I’d like to take this opportunity to introduce Animal Grossology, an exciting and uniquely educational exhibition at Metropolis at Metrotown. Adapted from the best-selling children’s series Grossology written by author and science teacher Sylvia Branzei, Animal Grossology brings to life all the gritty and gross facts on some of nature’s most disgusting critters.
Animal Grossology exhibition features; imaginative animated characters from the book and hands-on interactive challenges that engage visitors in a larger-than-life look at nature’s blood sucking, vomit-munching, slime making and dookie loving creatures. Fundamental educational content is captured through easy to read, giant 3-D book walls. The entire atmosphere interacts and entertains with a high-energy approach to science.
Animal Grossology will be in Metropolis at Metrotown from May 15 to August 22, 2010. With the school year coming to an end, this may be a great last field trip for your class and a fun adventure for summer programs.
Complimentary guided school and group tours are available upon request. The info is appropriate for K-7. The tours are 30-45 minutes in length and teachers and students will receive takeaways, including student activity sheets, for further gross adventures.
If you would like to learn more about this fun, educational exhibition or book a tour please Kristy Slough at 604.630.3364 or kslough@ivanhoecambridge.com
Sincerely,
Artie Chumpol
Public and Community Relations Manager
