Wednesday, May 2 · 9:45 AM – 12:30 PM

Oma, Opa, Grand-mére, Grand-père, Grandma, Grandpa, 爷爷, 奶奶…

Grandfriends are the best. We know it, they know it. And what do grandfriends love more than anything else? Grandchildren, of course. That’s what this day is all about. Please join us for an excellent presentation of student songs, poems and other presentations.

There is no need to RSVP. Just show up! Come at 9:45 AM to enjoy some coffee and baking. We’ll start the program at 10 AM.

This year we will be using the gym, as the Mulit-Purpose Room was getting too tight to hold everyone.

What is the format?

We’ll use a similar format to other years. Come at 9:45 for some coffee and refreshments. We’ll begin the program at 10 AM. We’ll enjoy music and presentations from students in preschool through grade 7. Right after all the presentations, we’ll send you to classrooms to enjoy lunch with your grandchildren.

Will there be lunch?

Yes, the grandchildren who invited you will bring a bagged lunch for you. You will eat lunch with them in their classroom.

Will there be other activities?

For those who would like, we’ll have an optional school-wide scavenger hunt that grandfriends can do with their students. The scavenger hunt will bring you all over the school, and there will be a draw for a prize!

Is there a cost to attend?

No, there’s no cost to attend. We are welcoming you as our guest.

Where should we park?

We will reserve our parking lot for you.

Can I adopt a book for the library?

Yes, the BVCS library will have an Adopt-a-Book table set up in the gym. Here you can choose a book to sponsor (there will be a range of prices), and we’ll place your name on a sponsor tag in the front cover.

Adopt a Book

You can put a great new book into the BVCS library through the Adopt-a-Book initiative. We’ve selected many different books for you to choose from. When you adopt a book, you’re putting some great literature into the hands of BVCS kids. Visit the Adopt-a-Book table in the lobby during Grandfriends Day!
