And that's a launch! Thank you @njwblackburn for kicking off @CaulfeildSchool's Whole-School Inquiry on Inclusion. I'm so excited to see how our bears can work together to be inclusive, caring and supportive towards others in our community. #bethebear #westvaned #community

A HUGE thank you to Lisa from the @BC_SPCA for the 'Kindness Counts' presentation she gave to the @CaulfeildSchool Grade 1s today. We learned about cues animals give us to communicate their emotions, and how we can best respect and respond to those emotions. #bethebear #westvaned

Today provided much opportunity for our Grade 1s @CaulfeildSchool to appreciate Indigenous stories like The Three Sisters in the forest and songs sung by Sahplek on National Indigenous Peoples Day. #bethebear #Westvaned #NationalIndigenousPeoplesDay

The students @CaulfeildSchool thoroughly enjoyed @DuffleBagThtre's performance of Snow White today. It was extremely entertaining and totally "a-door-able" (that's a 'you had to be there' pun). 😉 #bethebear #westvaned #performingarts

Thank you Sahplek (Bob Baker) for coming to @CaulfeildSchool & sharing the song you composed for #MMIWGT2S with teachers from across @WestVanSchools. Every beat of your drum sounded a powerful message. Everyone present was impacted & I hope many more hear your words. #westvaned

From the beautiful decorations, to the delicious food, to the generous gifts, and the extraordinary effort. Thank you @CaulfeildPAC for going above and beyond on Staff Appreciation Day. Our hearts and bellies are well beyond full. #YOUarethebear #howluckyarewe #westvaned

This adorable crew @CaulfeildSchool opted to clean our school grounds over playing in the forest today. They aptly named themselves the 'Garbage Pirates' because they search for 'treasures'- aka garbage that won't end up in the ocean. #bethebear #EarthDay2022 #westvaned

A huge thank you to Lanie from the @BC_SPCA for her 'Kindness Counts' presentation to both Div 13 & 14 @CaulfeildSchool . It was informative, engaging, and taught us the ways to read cues, understand how pets are feeling, and act in ways that respects those feelings. #bethebear

Many classes @CaulfeildSchool made heartfelt Valentine cards for seniors through @homeineastvan. We hope that these cards let them know that we truly care and are thinking about them. @jeffmuthanna @esthercjulian #bethebear #westvaned #empathyallyear

The students in Division 14 @CaulfeildSchool have reflected and written their own land acknowledgement. We start each and every day with these words. #bethebear #westvaned #reconciliation #gratitude

The children of Essential Workers @CaulfeildSchool were inspired today by the snow and the touching story, "Lost and Found" by @OliverJeffers. #bethebear #westvaned #friendship

Our nature loving Grade 1s @CaulfeildSchool are over the moon that not only did make Xmas better for 6 seniors, but they also donated $271 to the Wildlife Rescue Association to help injured animals in the wild. #Bethebear #westvaned #empathy @WRAofBC

'Tis the season for @CaulfeildSchool's Div14 and their Buddies, Div6, to continue to demonstrate empathy and spread holiday cheer as they carefully paint tree ornaments to help a recently opened group home decorate their first tree. #Bethebear #westvaned

'Tis the season for @CaulfeildSchool's Whole-School Inquiry about empathy & compassion. The Grade 1s raised $ and bought gifts for 6 seniors and many classes made cards for @HmInsteadWVan's amazing Santa for Seniors program to let our seniors know we care. #bethebear #westvaned

Today, on #IndigenousVeteransDay, we remember and honour the First Nations, Métis and Inuit men and women in uniform who sacrificed so much, for the peace and freedom we enjoy today. Today and every day we are in their debt. To them, we say thank you. #CanadaRemembers

Division 14 @CaulfeildSchool shared their thoughts on what students and teachers need to do in order to have a great school year. I have to say, I think they nailed it! #bethebear #westvaned

One of the many learning activities and expressions of thoughtfulness with National Indigenous Peoples Day @JadeConstantine @CaulfeildSchool #westvaned #bethebear

Sign the petition for Residential school grounds and surrounding areas to be searched for children. @JustinTrudeau https://t.co/0WhA7DApCI via @CdnChange

Staff @CaulfeildSchool, led by @RSWillock, stopped for a moment of silence before our walk-in this morning as we mourn and honour the 215 children whose unmarked graves have been discovered at the Kamloops Residential School. #bctf #westvaned #everychildmatters

Thank you @BCPVPA for another informative, thought-provoking session. And a special shout out to @WestVanSchools very own @tarazielinski. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and expertise with us!
