2010 - 2011 Calendar at a Glance
The following are some important dates and school closure times for the 2010 - 2011 school year. In addition to marking them down (if they have not been marked already) from your agenda book, you may also want to mark these days on your home's calendar as well.

Timetable Change: Monday to Wednesday
Counsellors will be at work this week, Monday to Wednesday, from 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., to address any concerns regarding your timetable. The following lists the group(s) of students we will be assisting this week:
Please note: if you have passed a summer school remedial course, but have registered for the same course for the 2010 - 2011 year (e.g. you failed Math 8 last year, and then passed it in summer school, but have registered to repeat Math 8 in the 2010 - 2011 year), your course request for that course would have been removed by the administrators. Therefore, you must come in this week to see a counsellor to have your courses changed.
We are expecting a high number of students these three days, so I want to thank you in advance for your patience.
- Monday, August 30: Students who have an incomplete timetable, and students whose courses will be different as a result of summer school courses
- Tuesday, August 31: Any students who do not have a complete timetable (i.e. students with fewer than 8 courses scheduled)
- Wednesday, September 1: Students who wish to have a course changed (counsellors will only be able to take requests at this time)

Bell Schedule for the 2010 - 2011 Year
Starting in 2010, all secondary schools in Vancouver will have a unified bell schedule. Because of this, Templeton's bell schedule will become different as well from the past. Please jot this information down:

Break: 10:00 - 10:15
Period 2: 10:15 - 11:40

Welcome Back!

In case we haven't met already - my name is Mr. Leung, and I will be your counsellor this year, and probably until you graduate from Templeton in 2014! I can be found at the end of the counselling suite (Room 103F, if you need a room number) if you want to chat, or if you have any concerns over school, friends, and home. While some of you were a part of my grade 8 load last year, most of you will be working with me for the first time this year. I am looking forward for this opportunity.
There are quite a few ways you can contact me - feel free to browse this blog - I have listed at least 4 ways that you can get in touch with me...
So, before I sign off, I just want to say: for those of you who are new to Templeton, welcome to a wonderful school! For those of you who are returning, welcome back!
