Creativity & Children A great mix That’s one of the reasons our annual Design an Ad special supplement continues to be popular in Burnaby. The Burnaby NOW, local businesses and organizations, and the Burnaby school district, team up and ask city students to design newspaper ads for the special section. Every year, the students produce insightful, creative, thoughtful – and often humorous – advertisements that highlight the strengths of their subjects and often carry compelling messages. The businesses and groups get to choose which students’ advertisement they want to run in the section and our photographer visits the students. The ads and photos of students are put together by our team at the Burnaby NOW and another Design an Ad section is complete. The ads are also on display at Loughed Town Centre from March 31. I would like to thank all of the students, teachers and participating advertisers who continue to make this annual project a real success!
Burnaby - A great place to learn Public Education means that every child is given the opportunity to learn and to be inspired to reach their potential, and Burnaby’s public schools have been doing just that, serving the learning needs of the community since 1906.
Arts; a Challenge or MACC Program for high-ability learners, or a school that focuses on education through the arts. Secondary students will appreciate that the District offers one of the largest AP programs in Canada, including an option to earn an AP Capstone Diploma. Other specialized learning opportunities include sports academies, visual & performing Education is not a “one size arts programs, a wide range of fits all,” and we offer many career education options including options to support the unique Mechatronics (Robotics) and Health Sciences, and a mini-school for high learning needs of each child. ability learners.
Our mission, to prepare an inclusive caring community of learners for the challenges of a changing tomorrow is as valid today as it was 110 years ago –perhaps even more so. For with the impact of globalization and technology, the jobs of today are not likely to be the jobs of the future. We continue to be innovative, finding ways to engage our students and ensure they are prepared to contribute and thrive in the evolved world they will encounter.
We are making a difference – preparing our students for the challenges of a changing tomorrow and the accolades and awards garnered by our students, staff and schools are testimony to this fact. We invite you to learn more about Burnaby’s public schools at www.sd41.bc.ca – so many reasons to be proud.
Ron Burton Chair, Burnaby Board of Education
Education is not a “one size fits all,” and we offer many options to support the unique learning needs of each child. For elementary students, this may include a language program such as French Immersion or Mandarin Language
