Meeting Tuesday, May 10

Meeting Tuesday, May 10 in Mr. Benoy's Room - D208 at the start of noon break.

The trip includes visits to: Paris, D-Day sites in Normandy, Dieppe, Vimy Ridge, Canterbury and London.

This PowerPoint should provide an overview of the trip and what it entails. Click on the underlined word to access this file on any computer.Y

You can see and download the tour company's introductory booklet and registration form by clicking here.

Be sure to go over both items carefully with your parents to ensure that this works for you. If there is enough interest from this meeting, we will go ahead and plan a parent information meeting before going ahead and starting to send in registrations.

Please have a parent e-mail Mr. Benoy directly at kbenoy@nvsd44.bc.ca -- or hand in the paper commitment form -- as soon as you are sure you would like to participate.

What happens next?

If there is enough confirmed interest, I will apply for school board approval of the trip. When we get that, we can hold a parent meeting and begin registering people and begin payments -- allowing us to reserve airline space and begin hotel bookings.


We need commitments from at least 15 people by this Friday to continue planning and justify application for trip permission from the North Vancouver School Board.

If we receive enough interest, the tour company is offering to raffle a $50 gift certificate toward the trip. We will draw this from among the names confirming by Friday, May 13.
