Deep Cove Grade 5 Farewell
Deep Cove Grade 5 Farewell
Leroy will be attending North Saanich Middle school next school year. Leroy will miss everyone and everything at Deep Cove, specially the kindergartener & Little buddies. His favorite class was the music class, the teacher made things fun and the big parachute time was his favorite. Looks forward to the big water fight with the teachers at end of the school year. Proudest moment is when he finished all the questions to a math test. Leroy wants to be at good sports player (Lacrosse, Basketball, and baseball.) He also wants to work at a grocery store when he turns 14. He wants to build a shelter for homeless and make sure they have life time snacks, clothes and a TV. His advice for future Gr.5’s is “Listen, think before you do something. If someone bugs you, walk away.”
“Believe in yourself! Don't let anyone bring you down from your dreams. You can graduate in high school, just believe in yourself!”

She is a good friend and she likes to make people laugh.

The SENĆOŦEN Translation of the Deep Cove Beliefs that were developed with the input of students and staff.
Students learning from Toby Joseph
June 2018
Deep Cove is nearing completion of the creation of their school Beliefs. As part of this process, accompanying artwork was created by Coast Salish artist, Sarah Jim. Sarah is a former Deep Cove student and Tseycum community member. The Beliefs have been produced in French, English, and Ms. Jim is working with her sister who is a SENĆOŦEN Immersion teacher to produce a version in SENĆOŦEN.
Each class was given money from school funds to invite local elders into their classrooms twice this year. Staff have advocated for this and the entire community has benefited from the learning opportunities of having elders come to share in our school community.
Deep Cove is working with Parkland to facilitate the visit of Indigenous students from the high school to share projects that they have created and are proud of with 2 of our elementary classes. Cameron and Bailey will be coming to Deep Cove this month to share projects in cartooning and English Language Arts.
