Great Field Trip

Div. 3 and Div. 5 had a great experience at YVR today. We travelled via public transit to Templeton station where we were met by the wonderful YVR school program staff. Each of our groups had an interesting day learning about YVR. Thanks to all our parent volunteers who spent the day with us.
