Spring Break Update

Hello Journey Families,

Hoping that all of you are taking care of yourselves and your families during these complicated days.  We know that there are many unanswered questions and a little worry about the days to come.  Although I don’t have any concrete answers about the exact “how”, what I do know is our community will work together to ensure that we all stay safe and that our students will be connected to educational tools and resources.  We have an incredible dedicated and skilled group of educators who care deeply for their students!

As we start our second week of Spring Break during these complicated times, we know there are many questions about what education will look like in the days to come. We are working with the team at the Board Office who is in turn working with the Ministry of Education and Ministry of Health. Although things are continuing to change daily, we are hopeful that information will be coming out by the end of this week to all families.

We hope you can find time to look after yourselves, and each other, as we find ways to navigate a new way of doing things. We are thankful to live in the community of Sooke where we have space to get outdoors while still practicing social distancing! The absolute best part is belonging to a community of people who are watching out and caring for one another. There is a lot of information out there, some accurate, some not so much. Please take care to help your children navigate through the constant barrage of “facts” to ensure their physical and emotional well-being.

Please reach out by email if you have questions. lszadkowski@sd62.bc.ca or kabell@sd62.bc.ca
