Hello Grade 7 Families,

On Thursday, January 29th, our Burnaby South Counsellors presented in the Michael J Fox Theatre on Course Selection for incoming Grade 7's to Burnaby South for September 2015.

We all understand that there was a lot of information to absorb in the Power Points in such a short amount of time, so I have uploaded the presentation here for you to see.

Grade 7 into 8 Course Selection Presentation

We also had available Course Selection Forms for you to take (Grade 8 was Green in color), the Grade 8 Honours Application Form (in bright pink), and the ELL/LSS Information Sheet (in bright green).

If you did not have a chance to get a copy of each of these forms, I have uploaded them below.
