Seabird Island Band and Fraser Cascade School District (#78) recently signed a Local Education Agreement with a commitment to First Nations student achievement, strong literacy and numeracy, high graduation rates and a supportive educational environment which values Stó:lō language and culture. This agreement builds on the success of the partnership between Seabird and SD78 that has seen a rise in graduation rates of 35 per cent a decade ago to 65 per cent today. The LEA governs the educational relationship between Seabird and SD78 for some 65 students that attend public school. The Local Education Agreement (LEA 2015) was built on a landmark agreement negotiated in 2013 which focused not only on district approaches, but also individual school approaches. It featured a de-

tailed commitment to measurable results and promoted openness, communication and a partnership between Band, District, School and home. As part of the LEA, the Band, Schools and District meet quarterly to discuss results and collaborate to address issues that stand in the way of student success. This agreement places even more focus on measuring results, promoting strong attendance, and seeing strong collaboration between schools and First Nations parents. Chief Clement Seymour and Seabird Island Band have long been passionate advocates of education that promotes strong collective relationships and high standards. “This agreement builds on the success that we have seen over the last number of years raising literacy and numeracy, seeing many more graduates and ensuring that our children and their culture and

language is valued in the public school system," said Chief Seymour. "In light of the recent release of the Final Report of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada (2015) and its accounting of the devastating effects of residential schools, this kind of relationship is a positive move forward and one which provides a positive future for our children.” Ron Johnstone, Chair of the Fraser Cascade School District stated, “We are pleased to be able to continue the effective working relationship with Seabird Island Band. During every LEA discussion that has taken place there has been one common and important theme; we are all here to make a difference for the children. Both parties are committed to doing everything possible to ensure that Seabird students are provided excellent opportunities to succeed in our schools.”

world trodden step, as he proudly extended his hand and introduced himself with a beaming and gracious smile as David Rempel. Not knowing the extent of his accomplishments, I had no way of knowing that Rempel was indeed, Dr. Dave Rempel, who was born on September 3rd, 1938 in a little town in Southern Ukraine at the foot of the junction near the Black Sea. He immigrated to Canada in 1949 with his mother Anna (who according to Rempel was beautiful, extremely independent and very much alone throughout her life) as a result of the ramifications of World War II. Ever modest in his approach — the wiry and polished teacher, Rotarian, School Board Trustee member, husband to Sharon Kincaid (who kept her surname) and father of two (Jacqlyn and Julya — both adopted and who carry the namesake Anna in honour of his late mother) has an energy that can only be described as infectious. Rempel is clearly a man on a mission, as he proceeded with an air of confidence to describe his grand scheme to bring former students of Coquihalla Elementary School together, as well as the community of Hope to have himself roasted in an event called Rem-

The roast will be an opportunity to get back at Rempel for his extraordinary teaching methods (including an infamous duck walk, which was given as punishment to students for missing gym strip or tardiness.) “I bet you can’t guess how old I am,” he said of his appearance, which has changed little over the decades that followed his sevenyear reign at Coquihalla Elementary School from 1964 to 1971 — a side note taken from several conversations with former students on Rempel’s timelessness. Baffled, I stare at a Rempel who could pass gracefully for a man in his early 60’s and do the only reasonable thing I can, I shrug my shoulders. “It’s good genes,” said the 77-year-old, as

he smiled back at my stupefied expression. Rempel’s love and passion for life, are clearly a recipe for good health and seem to have held the terrible hand of father time at bay. Carrying with him on our first meeting was an elegant tan coloured briefcase, a briefcase full of photographs and letters pertaining to a glorious era for students and teachers alike, a time not forgotten, but perhaps made murky with the dust that’s settled over four decades. One thing was clear as he held the briefcase as carefully as one might hold a lost treasure, Rempel had spent a lot of time collecting keepsakes from his students over the years. He started to describe the mysterious contents:

Each letter (Rempel has dozens of handwritten letters from students) and photographs came alive as he recalled various sports teams, intramurals, zany, carefree and totally uninhibited red-tape-free outings (some that ended in disaster, but most were successful) to exciting locations like Seattle and even Russia. He recited the trials and triumphs of his students at Coquihalla Elementary School during the late 60’s. Faces of boys and girls smiled back at me from the pictures, some with trophies, others hanging out, or sporting the traditional bowl cut of the 60’s and the time revealing knee high gym socks.

One of his letters reads: “Dear Mr. Rempel, I am writing on behalf of the Youth Walk to thank you for letting us have the money for the walk and for helping us so much,” said Sharon Simpson, former Coquihalla Elementary student. It was a golden era, where Rempel thrived as a handson teacher, who never tired of his students or spending time with them after school, during the many extra curricular activities that he often organized. These activities are not as easy to come by in today’s education system, a system according to Rempel that has gotten caught up in bureaucracies that made the freedom he and his student’s enjoyed in the 60’s almost impossible by today’s standards. “I remember the duck walk,” said Tara Crofton, former Coquihalla Elementary student. “You only did it once and that was enough, it was a sort of punishment — my quads still hurt.” The punishment required kids to squat into a duck like position and walk back and fourth across the length of

the gym. “He had a way of inspiring faith in someone and increasing a student’s confidence,” said Crofton, of Rempel’s ability to encourage the talents and abilities of his students. “He thought outside of the box.” The sports enthusiast, also spent some time as a stage manager for school theatre productions in a bid to stop a war with the drama and music teacher about access to the gym. Rempel taught all subjects, along with his forte, which was physical education. He spoke candidly about his one time dream of becoming a minister, but instead used his Bachelors in Education from UBC to minister to hundreds of kids. “It energized me,” he said. “It’s about giving — you get more out of giving.” The vibrant patriarch and Mennonite who cites his faith as a huge source of inspiration and a steady stream feeding his outgoing nature, calls Maple Ridge home and is also a pioneer of BC EMU Industry. He houses a bird sanctuary that has seen over 3,500 visitors on a plot of land

near water, which is where he envisioned spending the quiet period of his life — though Rempel seems to continue at a fervent pace that people half his age might balk at. “My wife gave me a flock of black swans for Valentine’s Day,” Rempel nonchalantly mentions of the couple’s love of wildlife. My jaw drops, as I try to wrap my head around the romantic imagery of being gifted a gaggle of the black feathered beauties. Rempel continues without missing a beat, listing name after name of his former students and the amazing trips they took including overnight camping trips, cycling trips and the time he slept in. “I still remember the principal at the time coming over to my house — he never let me forget it,” he said of his rare late appearance. “The kids were scheduled to go to the library and went without me — proper education teaches independence.” He continued to list a dozen different names of kids, including their abilities and accomplishments — which he still remembers in great detail. “He’s very loyal to his

friends and I’ve known him for approximately 60 years,” said Vern Giesbrecht, long time friend of Rempel’s. “He’s always had a lot of energy and he’s always on the go — he takes on a lot of projects and he had a great influence, not just on the kids, but the teacher’s as well.” The life enthusiast also managed Rainbow’s End a local band Hope resident and former student Victor Smith played in for a few years. “He was always fun and made jokes and stayed positive,” said Smith. Smith played the organ and chalked the experience up to a great time that gave him the ability to learn about teamwork, interacting with people and communicating ideas to the crowd.

Mental health for children and youth Dr. David Smith

Psychiatrist and medical director of the Okanagan Psychiatric services for Interior Health.

For children and teenagers in BC, coping well with the demands of school work, busy schedules and social relationships in today's chaotic world reflects resilient mental health. But some BC children and youth are unable to cope well with the daily stresses of their lives and the results can be debilitating or tragic. An estimated 13 per cent of youth in BC each year experience a mental health issue —that means up to 83,700 children under the age of 19 in BC may be suffering. Studies show that receiving appropriate help at the right time may enable a child or youth to return to good health or prevent the escalation of symptoms, warding off larger crises or more chronic illnesses, and even at times saving young lives. But unfortunately, the majority of youth experiencing a mental health issue, or their families, do not seek help. Why is this? There are likely a number of key factors:

youth and family may lack understanding about mental health issues or may be unable to recognise the symptoms of a mental health problem; they may not know how to access the right services, who to see, or how to navigate BC's mental health system; they may be worried about possible stigma, or labelling, and hoping it is simply a "phase" that will pass. As an adolescent and adult psychiatrist working for the last 11 years in Interior Health (IH), I appreciate how frightening and worrying it can be for youth and families when a mental health issue arises. But I also know that the right help can make all the difference and that good recovery is possible even with some of the most serious of mental health concerns. And "help" does not always mean treatment with medication. In fact, many mental health problems in children and youth can be very successfully treated with other techniques, particularly Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), which, in essence, teaches skills to address the thoughts, feelings and

behaviors that underlie a mental health problem. Working with a group of mental health colleagues in the Interior and on Vancouver Island—including families with lived experience, mental health clinicians from the Ministry of Children and Family Development, health authority professionals, school counsellors, family doctors, pediatricians and others — we have come up with a series of short columns to run in this paper to help youth and families recognize and understand some common mental health concerns. In 10 articles, we will talk about issues like anxiety, depression, substance use, eating disorders, obsessive compulsive disorder, schizophrenia and family support. We will help you recognize the symptoms and know when and how to seek help. We will talk about successful skills, actions and treatments. These columns, as well as running in your local paper, can also be found at http://www.sharedcarebc. ca so you can access them online or share with friends and family.

The BC SPCA is encouraging animal guardians to refresh their emergency pet preparedness. Several new wildfires as well as old ones have caused evacuation orders and states of emergency in several B.C. communities, prompting people to leave their homes as quickly as possible.

blackpress.ca X bclocalnews.com

Fire in the sky: How pet-prepared are you for emergencies The danger of the fire season is upon us, and it’s important to think of our furry companions in case of evacution Story contributed by Tricia Leslie BC SPCA

a watchdog over the powerful.

Sheila Reynolds Multimedia Journalist at The Surrey-North Delta Leader. Her award-winning court coverage of the Surrey Six mass murder trial gave victims a voice and provided insight into gang violence.

With a few keystrokes you can sample thousands of opinions, aľoat in a sea of information. But as the volume increases, the accuracy and reliability of professional journalism is essential. Gathering and sorting the facts, weighing and interpreting events, and following the story from beginning to end is more important than ever.

With the Fraser Valley and much of B.C. covered with a thick haze of forest fire smoke, the BC SPCA is encouraging animal guardians to refresh their emergency pet preparedness. Several new wildfires as well as old ones have caused evacuation orders and states of emergency in several B.C. communities, prompting people to leave their homes as quickly as possible. “When you’re ordered to evacuate, you need to do it as soon as possible, and people don’t necessarily think about their pet in an emergency situation until it’s too late,” says BC SPCA general manager of community relations Lorie Chortyk. “You don’t have time to gather up everything you need if you have to get out of your home right away.” Evacuations are usually a busy time for staff and volunteers at the province’s BC SPCA branches, as they provide extra shelter, pet food and pet-related equipment such as crates and leashes for pet guardians and animals. “When you’re in a hurry, it can be easy to forgot feeding bowls, food, leashes, everything,” Chortyk says. “That’s why it’s important to plan ahead and be prepared for any emergency. People love their pets but it often doesn’t sink in that an emergency can happen at any time.” Having an emergency pet kit handy is key, as well as ensuring your pet is already wearing a collar with up-to-date contact information, Chortyk notes. Keeping your pets inside the house so you don’t need to search for them is also a good idea, as is having emergency pet boarding plans in place.

Items to include in an emergency kit for your pet(s) include: · A seven-day supply of food and water · Identification tag and collar · Sturdy crate and/or carrier · Pet first aid kit · Blanket/plastic bags · Leash, harness · Food and water bowls (collapsible are great) · Litter box and litter for cats · Manual can opener · Copy of your pet’s current vaccination history · Any special medications and instructions “No one likes to think an emergency like a wildfire or an earthquake will happen. But in the event it does, it doesn’t hurt to be prepared – for themselves and for their beloved family pets,” Chortyk says. Visit spca.bc.ca for more information, or contact Lorie Chortyk, general manager, community relations, BC SPCA, 604-647-1316 (office) or 604830-7179. The BC SPCA is a non-profit organization funded primarily by public donations. Our mission is to prevent cruelty and to promote the welfare of animals through a wide range of services, including cruelty investigations, emergency rescue and treatment, sheltering and adoption of homeless and abused animals, humane education, advocacy, farm animal welfare, spay/neuter programs, and wildlife rescue and rehabilitation.

Time took you away too soon, our hearts were broken, there were still so many words left to be spoken. Although our lives were so far apart, you were always in our heart. We never ask for miracles, but today just one would do, to have the front door open and see you walk through. We might be selfish, we wish you were here. “Hallo Canada calling” we would love to hear.

ANNIVERSARIES

Oct 10, 1946 July 3, 2015

April 30, 1919 – July 6, 2015

We sadly announce the sudden passing of our beloved Georgina Campbell. George will be missed by her many relatives and friends. She will be forever in our hearts. She enjoyed being active in the Boston Bar community working with the youth and elders. A Celebration of Life will be held on Saturday, July 11th at 10am at The Longhouse at Tukkwiowhum Heritage Village, Anderson Creek just south of Boston Bar BC.

Our mother Lillian passed away peacefully at the Central Okanagan Hospice House in Kelowna, BC. She was 96 years young. She is survived by sons Jim (Donna) and Jack (Alana); 5 grandchildren: Todd (Tina), Chad, Nathan, Marshall and Shawna (Brodie); great granddaughter Ivy. She is also survived by two of her sisters, Grace Oliver and Maizie Howard, sister-in-law Marion Ryan and many nieces and nephews. Mom was predeceased by our father Art in July, 2012. They had been married for 66 years. She has really missed Dad these past 3 years and now they will be united again. She was born in Blaine Lake, Saskatchewan on April 30, 1919 and after high school graduation she trained as a registered nurse at St. Paul’s Hospital in Saskatoon. Mom and Dad lived in Hope for 54 years where she was a member of the Eastern Star. For the past 9 years Mom has resided at Lakeshore Place Assisted Living Center in Kelowna. Mom will be buried with Dad at a family ceremony in the Legion Cemetery in Hope. All of us will surely miss her as we have our Dad. Condolences may be sent to the family by visiting w w w. s p r i n g f i e l d f u n e r a l home.com, 250-860-7077.
