Week of November 9-13
Dear DLG Families,
Hello everyone,
As we begin a week in which we remember our veterans and all those who have been affected by war, we take time to reflect on the importance of peace, service, and community. Many of our families have come to Canada from different parts of the world seeking a place where children can learn, grow, and attend school in safety. We are grateful to the veterans who have served our country and worked to help keep Canada, and communities around the world, safe.
Please remember that Wednesday, November 11 is Remembrance Day, and there will be no school as we observe this important occasion.
Week Ahead

Kindergarten Registration for September 2027
Kindergarten registration has now begun for children who live in the David Lloyd George Elementary catchment area and will be starting school in September 2027.
If you, or someone you know, lives in our catchment and has a child eligible for Kindergarten, please visit the Vancouver School Board's Priority Kindergarten Registration website for registration information and timelines.
We encourage families to register as early as possible. If you know of neighbours, friends, or family members who have an eligible child, please help us spread the word.
Thank you for your ongoing support of our school community. We wish all of our DLG families a wonderful week ahead.
