The Grizzly Gazette Jan 5-9

Dear Gibson Families,

HAPPY NEW YEAR! I hope you all had a restful and fun-filled time over the holidays.

January is always a busy and productive month and we are looking forward to seeing all the learning and new adventures happening around the school. Please ask your students about their learning. What new thing did they learn this week or what are they most proud of? We’re all looking forward to getting back into our routine!

As always our school motto is “Be Kind, Be Safe, Be Respectful, Be Responsible”. The Gibson School community continues to work towards developing these values as we learn and grow.

Road Safety Around Schools  

We are urging all parents and drivers to please slow down and follow posted signs in school zones. To ensure the safety of all when traffic is busy, please use the designated areas when dropping off or picking up your child. Please also use extreme caution at the nearby crosswalks. Let’s keep students safe on their way to and from school. Delta Police School Liaison Officers and Delta Bylaw Inspectors will be working together over the coming months to increase enforcement and education at all Delta School zones.
