From Victoria, B.C., the White Hatter Team has presented to over 450 schools and thousands of students across Canada and U.S.
There’s no registration involved nor is there a fee for admission. If individuals wish, however, to make a donation to the Whitehorse Food Bank, there will be a hamper at the door along with a jar for financial donations should individuals wish to contribute. Doors open at 6 pm at the Yukon Inn (Fireside Room) with the presentation taking place from 6:30–8:30 pm. School calendar dates for all Yukon schools are now available online for the 2019-20 school year. You can find school calendar dates for your school by visiting Yukon.ca/school-holiday-dates
Along with the key dates that were determined last year, all school non-instructional days for 2019-20 have now been set. School bell schedules for next school year will be set in the coming weeks. Key dates for the 2022-23 school year, along with the 2020-21 and 2021-22 school years, are also available on Yukon.ca as part of the Government of Yukon’s efforts to set calendars four years in advance to help families, schools and school communities plan activities. We are excited to be able cloud-based computer software and file storage services to all our students. This will allow them to work on documents at school and at home more easily - no need to email files back and forth or worry about not having the proper software. Student can even type and edit documents on their smartphone. These services require student files to be stored on third-party servers and and full privacy assessment has been completed by the Yukon Department of Education. In order for students to access the services, we require parent/guardian permission. The form is linked below. Only page 3 is required to be printed, signed, and returned so we can enable the account for each student. This is an exciting development for our students and we are hoping to take full advantage of it in many classes! If you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to contact the school.
