Details for enrolling David in School

We tried to figure out what "catchment" area we are in for enrolling David Doral in Kindergarten in the Fall. No address we could recall or create worked in School District #83's transportation website.

According to BC Hydro we have a newly labelled physical address.

L3-1280 Bernie Rd,
Annis Bay, BC V0E 2V0

Our mailing address has been renewed to be

PO Box 1063
Sicamous, BC V0E 2V0

I spoke with the Principal at the Sicamous Elementary School called Parkview. He is pretty sure that North Canoe Elementary is where David should be enrolled. Then we can apply to cross school boundaries if we prefer to drive David ourselves to another school. On our list for alternative schools for David are:

-Parkview, Sicamous, full-time English Kindergarten
-Bastion, Salmon Arm, part-time French Immersion Kindergarten

We will be camping out on April 6th to get David on the waitlist for French Immersion. We hear last years camp-out was over 36 hours long and only 14 spots were available. Next week we begin visiting all the schools. What an adventure.

The lake is so calm today the sky and moutains are reflected in it. David said he wonders when it will be summer. He misses his cousins. I suggested he wear shorts around the house in honour of missing summer.
