Happy Pi Day! A student memorized pi and wrote by memory(!) the first 314 digits in the library. Wow!our Byrne Creek students are so incredible! @ByrneCreekCS @burnabyschools

February 14 is Love Your School Library Day! Here is a snapshot of a week in our wonderful library.

Another fun lunch hour in the library. The whole math department came out in force to create a pop up holiday decoration workshop. (Almost no math involved!!😅) Thanks to our amazing PAC for the supplies! @burnabyschools @ByrneCreekCS

Our first staff vs student chess tournament happened today in the library! It was a full house. Part 2 takes place Thursday. @burnabyschools @ByrneCreekCS

Our Mandarin students hosted preschool students and their families in the library for story time today. Activities, games and language (all in Mandarin) in our library. Pretty special.💜

As we hit the middle of November, it a good time to share how weather-related school closures are handled. We do our best to communicate #BurnabySchools CLOSURES by 6:30am. Typically, there is no announcement when schools are OPEN. Enlarge the full graphic below to learn more.

I just bought a library ukulele. We are a busy, vibrant library so was a bit hesitant. I so should not have been.

We had over 40 students show up for our first ever luncheon Library UNO tournament this week. Finals are up next! Thanks to our amazing PAC for supporting us. @burnabyschools @ByrneCreekCS #LLC

A student made this beautiful needle felted character over several lunch hours in our library maker space. Thx to our PAC for the supplies and our amazing students for creative spirit! @ByrneCreekCS @burnabyschools

We were mapping in the library today with an ELL socials class. Lots of comments about the incredible size of Canada.

Welcomed almost 100 grade 8 into the LLC during Flex to check in, make new friends and practice (argh) our lock opening skills. Part 2 starts at 8:37 tomorrow! Thx to our amazing Leo’s for the help!

Getting excited about September start up! Just purchased some new books to greet us when we get back. 2 weeks to go! @burnabyschools @ByrneCreekCS

Congratulations to the Byrne Creek graduating class of 2024 🐶

Students enjoying this kit from our District Resource Centre. It’s so great to be able to borrow materials to try out for a short time. Who would have perhaps guessed that we high school people also enjoy building? Play is important to everyone. @burnabyschools #btla #bctla
