I had the privilege to witness an honouring ceremony at Ray-Cam Community Centre in Strathcona today. Many people, young and old, were honoured. The audience was one of the most diverse I’ve seen in Vancouver, and it was wonderful to watch. My organization, Pathways Canada, is spearheading efforts to increase graduation rates in the area. Anybody interested in volunteering should contact me and research Pathways to see if it’s for them.
Jenny Kwan (MLA) was in the audience (second picture).
I was that guy.
Over two weeks of work by Life Skills students are on show in the Windermere front entrance display case now until Spring Break. There are country name banners, passports, flags, drawings of citizens, and a unique UN-style document outlining the laws by which citizens must abide.
Life Skills students made their own countries last week and are now able to travel the world with their new passports!
We are ready to travel! Mr. Robson will be taking us somewhere… https://t.co/sX71S8mCYh

In an effort to promote values-based banking, Vancity has enlisted our students for advice. They did so well, putting into practice lots of concepts that my Business Education 9/10 students are going to be doing shortly for their Warriors’ Den 2016 business plans. For more photos, visit Jr BIA Collingwood’s Facebook page (they have hundreds!).
