and attended Eric Hamber Secondary since 1962 and we look forward to the continuation of those

Please continue to monitor the school website http://hamber.vsb.bc.ca/ as well as the VSB website

throughout the year.
Sincerely,
Alex Grant
Principal
You will find additional, important information for new and returning students on the following pages of
this Newsletter.
GRADE 8 ORIENTATION – WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 2ND, 11:00 a.m. – 1:30 pm
On Wednesday, September 2nd, Eric Hamber will host the Grade 8 Summer Orientation This
orientation is an opportunity for our new Grade 8 students to become acquainted with their
school and get to know their new classmates. The orientation will include an “ice breaker”,
interactive games, a homeroom meeting, and a tour of the building using a
temporary class schedule. You will have an introduction to Peer
Counsellors and key Hamber staff members who are all really excited to
meet incoming Grade 8 students.
Following the activities we will have lunch in the cafeteria courtyard for the
students. Parents may pick up their child after 1:30 pm. in the Cafeteria.
Our annual Grade 8 Camp will be held October 5th and 6th at Camp Stillwood. Students will be
bringing home detailed information and permission forms the first week in September. Parents
will have the opportunity to ask questions at the Grade 8 Parent Orientation prior to the
Walkabout on September 17th. We encourage all grade 8 students to participate in this fun event
in order to start building meaningful relationships with their peers and teachers.
PARKING AND TRAFFIC SAFETY
Student drop-offs and pick-ups should happen only on 33rd Avenue and 37th Avenue.
Help us to keep traffic off of Willow Street so that it remains a safe pedestrian area for both
students and local residents.
Please: DO NOT drop students off by driving into designated staff parking areas.
Please avoid using the lane east of Willow as part of your route to drop off students. The laneway
is not designed for two way traffic and causes another area of safety concern as a result.
GRADE 8 PARENTS’ ORIENTATION
As part of our special attention in assisting our Grade 8 students to make a successful transition
to secondary school, we will be holding an Orientation meeting for Grade 8 parents on Thursday,
September 17th at 6:00 pm to provide information about Grade 8 Camp and other issues. Please
plan to join us as it is important to your son or daughter that you remain connected to the school
community when they enter secondary school.
PARENT WALKABOUT EVENING
Please plan to attend our Parent Walkabout Evening and meet your child’s teachers on Thursday,
September 17th from 7:00 pm to 9:00 pm. The format of the evening will be a simulation of our
Day1/Day2 class schedule with parents moving from classroom to classroom according to their
child’s timetable. You will be able to meet your child’s teachers and hear about course content
and objectives, expectations, nature of assignments, methods of evaluation, and other pertinent
information. If your son or daughter has an early morning class, you should arrive at 6:30 pm. For
Day 1/Period 1 classes, you should be at the school at 6:55 pm. Further details, including a copy
of your child’s class schedule will be brought home by your child prior to September 17 th.
PARENT-TEACHER CONFERENCES
Term One Parent-Teacher Conferences will take place on Thursday, January 14th from 6:30 pm
to 9:00 pm. Information on how to register times with teachers will be sent home with Term One
report cards, which go home with students on Wednesday, December 16th.
STUDENT REPORT CARD DAYS
Hamber staff prepare three formal reports during each school year, and parents are advised that
students will be carrying home report cards and newsletters that are issued in Homeroom class
on the following dates:
First Report ............................................................................................... December 16, 2015
Second Report ...................................................................................................... April 6, 2016
Third Report ....................................................................................................... June 29, 2016
In addition to the formal reports, teachers prepare interim reports anytime during the year when
they have concerns about your son/daughter, or when they want to inform you of improvement
or outstanding achievement in their subject areas. If you do not receive the report card or if you
have questions about your student’s progress or attendance, please call the school and speak to
the appropriate counsellor.
COUNSELLING DEPARTMENT
Grade counsellors hope Hamber students have enjoyed their summer vacation and are
rejuvenated by the break. We look forward to working with you this coming year and wish you
all a successful start to the new school year. A special welcome goes out to our new Grade 8
students and parents and others new to our school community.
Students are assigned to a grade counsellor as indicated below for programming and course
selection, but are free to consult any counsellor for personal matters.
Grade 8 – Mr. Smith
Grade 11 – Ms. Kartsonas
Grade 9 – Ms. French
Grade 12 – Mr. Vastardis
Grade 10 – Ms. Gates
Counsellors will be contacting students with incomplete timetables to set up appointments on
August 31st, September 1st and 2nd. Counsellors also will be enrolling new students during this
time. DO NOT PHONE THE SCHOOL – your counsellor will call you if you need an appointment!
Timetables will be handed out to students in Homeroom Class on
Tuesday, September 8th
They have NOT been included in this newsletter
At course planning time last spring, students were urged to select their courses carefully and
timetables have been created based on these choices. Necessary changes to reflect summer
school results are currently being made. Consequently, only a very few students should still have
a need for timetable changes.
No course changes will be made until after September 10th.
MULTICULTURAL HOME SCHOOL WORKERS
Vancouver School Board Multicultural Home-School Workers are knowledgeable, active
members of their ethnic communities. They are professionally trained and have experience in
the issues related to cultural integration and cross-cultural communication. They are also familiar
with the public school system in Vancouver.
These workers are available to support students, families, and school personnel by facilitating
communication among those of differing linguistic or cultural backgrounds. Acting as liaison for
school, family and community, they help school staff understand the concerns and needs of each
community. Eric Hamber’s Mandarin and Cantonese speaking Multicultural Home-School worker
can be reached at (604) 713-5999 at the District Reception Centre. Home-School workers who
speak several other languages are also available. Please call the school if you need further
information.
STUDENT ATTENDANCE
Students are expected to be in all scheduled classes on time, every day. Attendance records are
maintained by subject teachers and entered into computer records each class. A student not
present in class is marked absent. Acceptable reasons for absence are: illness, parental requests,
school field trips, or school Work Experience. All other absences are unacceptable.
It is important that parents/guardians call the school office at (604)713-8927 to report a
student absence by 9:00 am the day the student is absent. It is the student’s responsibility to
bring a note to school on their return to show to the teachers whose classes have been missed,
and THEN bring this note to the main office so that the computer attendance is updated. If this
procedure is not followed, the computer will show the student as absent without reason; an
unacceptable absence. Absence notes are available on the Hamber website.
Eric Hamber Secondary utilizes Synervoice Software and/or email to contact parents or guardians
to report student absences. Please make sure that our records include the parent email address.
HEALTH RECORD INFORMATION
If your child has any medical problem or condition that may require specific emergency treatment
while at school (e.g. epilepsy, diabetes, asthma, severe allergies), it is the parents’ responsibility
to completely fill in and return the Medical Alert Form to the Main School office. This form will
be handed out to students in Homeroom class during the first week of school so that staff and
administration can be made aware of any concerns. Students should carry their own Epipen if
required. If your child is injured at school or in an emergency situation, this is the form that will
be referred to provide emergency care. In order to protect your children from communicable
diseases such as diphtheria, tetanus, polio, measles, mumps and rubella, it is important that they
be immunized. The school nurse arranges clinics a few times a year at the school and, with the
parents’ written consent, provides the immunization required. Immunizations can also be given
by family physicians.
STUDENT SAFETY
Each year many students move, or change telephone numbers, but neglect to inform the School
Office of their changes, which makes effective communication between school and home
impossible. This, in turn, compromises student safety in the event that we need to contact the
family quickly should the student become ill.
As student safety is of prime importance to us, please provide the Receptionist in the main
school office with your new address and/or phone number as soon as you move or change
telephone numbers during the school year.
SMOKING, ILLEGAL DRUGS & ALCOHOL, VIOLENCE
Relationships in our school are based on mutual respect and courtesy; many stringent policies
are not necessary. However, we are certain that Hamber parents support the following three
policies.
Please discuss them with your family:
1. The Vancouver School Board has adopted a no-smoking policy for all personnel, students, and
members of the public covering all buildings and school grounds. We appreciate parents’
cooperation in ensuring that students observe the no-smoking rule in the building, on the
grounds, and at school-sponsored functions.
2. No student may be in possession of illegal or non-prescribed drugs or alcohol, or have
consumed drugs or alcohol prior to, or while at school, in school, in the vicinity of the school,
or at school sponsored functions. Possible consequences for violation of this policy include
suspension, transfer and expulsion.
3. Any student found with weapons, involved in violent acts or involved in soliciting others to
commit an act of violence, will be dealt with on an individual basis. Depending on the nature
and severity of the situation, possible consequences may include suspension, transfer and
expulsion.
NEIGHBOURHOOD RELATIONS
We urge our students to behave as responsible citizens when travelling through the
neighbourhood. While the majority of our students respect the school neighbourhood, our goal
is to have all students behave in such a way that the residents living next to our school do not
suffer more noise, more litter or more congestion on their streets.
SCHOOL PHOTOGRAPHS
Please mark Thursday, September 24th on your calendar, as that is the day when school
photographs will be taken. All students must be photographed as they will be provided, free of
charge, a Student ID Card. This ID card is your BC Transit GoCard, as well as your Hamber Library
Card required for entrance to school events and writing final school and Provincial exams. If you
wish, you will be able to purchase additional colour packages. You will receive detailed
information on the photo packages available, and their cost a day or two in advance of Photo
Day. (Photo Retake Day will be Tuesday, October 27th.)
PAC NEWS
It has been a glorious summer, full of warm weather and for my family long walks in the evenings!
As the fall season approaches. I'd like to extend a personal welcome to all returning students and
parents. And, a special greeting to all incoming grade 8 students: welcome to Hamber!
I hope to see many of you at PAC meetings this year, and I am looking forward to working with
you all again. The following dates are planned for PAC meetings:
September 16, October 7, November 4, January 6, February 3, April 6, and May 25 (AGM).
Meetings are held at 7:00 pm in the staff room. Please check the PAC website for agendas
(http://hamberpac.ca) or sign up for (infrequent) email newsletters.

PREVENTION MESSAGE FOR PARENTS
Parents play an important role in the prevention of smoking, drug and alcohol abuse. As
parents, you can do a lot to influence your children in ways that help them make healthy
choices.
SEVEN SIMPLE MESSAGES THAT CAN HELP
1. You are important in prevention.
Research continually shows that parents are very important in prevention. When it comes to
substance misuse, the quality of family life and relationships which you help determine, are
among the most powerful protective factors.
2. The perfect parent is a myth.
Because every family and every child is different, there is no perfect parenting model or
method. But, with intuition and effort, we can all find better ways to parent.
3. You are your child’s #1 teacher.
Don’t leave it up to the school or the community to teach your children to avoid drugs. Don’t
be afraid to start talking with your children about medications, alcohol and other substances
early.
4. Your children need you.
They need to feel your love and the reassurance that they have an important place in the
family and that home is a safe and good place to be. They will feel better about themselves
knowing this. When they have a concern about something like drugs, they will be more likely
to talk to you about it.
5. Don’t be afraid to set limits.
Children from homes with reasonable, but firm rules and expectations are actually happier
than those with no rules or structure. Be frank and honest in setting rules about alcohol or
other drug use. Be firm in knowing where your children are and when they are expected
home.
6. You are an important role model.
You are your childs’ most enduring example. This is true in the case of substance use and
misuse. By acting responsibly in your behaviour related to medication, alcohol, and tobacco
and other drug use, you are without words, teaching your child an important lesson.
7. There are no guarantees.
Remember: Your children are individuals and ultimately will make their own decisions.
Parents can influence their children, but cannot control them. The first step in helping a child
is to help him/her accept responsibility for his/her own actions.
SCHOOL LOCKERS
All students are assigned one locker on opening day through their Homeroom class or upon
registration. Grade 12 students have already signed up for lockers. Please note that any locks
placed on lockers that are not assigned will be removed.
SCHOOL LOCK FEE
All students are required to use a school lock for their school locker. The cost to purchase a
combination lock from the school is $9.00. Grade 8 and new Grade 9 and 10 students will require
an additional lock for their PE class. This $18.00 should be included in the cheque presented for
fee payment.
Parents and students are reminded that neither the school nor the Vancouver School Board
has insurance to cover loss or damage of students’ personal property. Do not bring expensive
items to school.
Almost all thefts that occur at Eric Hamber are as a result of students leaving items in unlocked
PE lockers!
INFORMATION FROM THE PE DEPARTMENT
Eric Hamber recommends that our Grade 8, 9, and 10 PE students wear Eric Hamber PE strip. In
past years, the PE staff received virtually 100% support from parents, who understood and
approved of our rationale – to ensure that students were changing into recognized and
acceptable PE strip each period. Students who wish to purchase Eric Hamber PE strip may do so
by including $30.00 ($20.00 for shorts and $10.00 for a T-Shirt) as part of their September school
fees paid the first week of school. PE strip may also be purchased from PE teachers.
PE Fees: PE 8–12 uses a number of community Field Trips and resources to enhance the
recreational opportunities for the students. Students choosing not to participate in the Field Trip
will be required to complete an alternate activity at the school. The cost breakdown and activity
selection for each grade will be sent home the first week of school.
YEARBOOK
The school Yearbook is optional; however, it is highly recommended for all students (especially
new students) in order that they gain an appreciation for the school and for all the wonderful
opportunities that the school has to offer. Students wanting a Yearbook are advised to pay at
school opening as the number of books ordered is based on the number of students who have
paid for one in September. The cost for books ordered in September is $35.00. After that, the
cost is $40.00.
