This is a mandatory part of being enrolled in PCS. Students who do not do a Learning Plan risk being withdrawn from the school. The only exception is if you are currently enrolled but for various reasons unable to attend physically and have discussed this with Mr. Janz. If you have not completed a Learning Plan we will be pulling you in to complete this as you come in to school.~ TREC / Ha'limootk - Oolichian Fishing ~PCS will be fishing Ha'limootk on March 14th. This will be a mandatory activity for all attending students. Our hope is to use some of the Ha'limootk for our Luncheon on March 16th. If there is enough student will be able to take some home.

We will be having ha'limootk (Oolichan), hon (salmon), chili and some vegetarian dishes. ~ Careers Credit and Buses ~If you have not heard already, you can receive credit for your Careers course by taking the bus. Becoming familiar with transit is a great skill to learn whether you here in Rupert, down in VanCity or living in PG. When you take the bus to school in the morning, stop by the office and tell Ms. Margaret that you took the bus. She will write your name down and you will get credit in Careers. ~ Careers & Monday Morning Assignments ~On Thursday of last week Mr. Janz had the opportunity to learn about Fire Extinguishers, different types of fires and how they interact. He even got to use a Fire Extinguisher to put out a fire (video below). For Monday Morning we are going to go over types of fires and Fire Extinguishers.If you remember anything, it's that bad things can happen when you don't know what you are doing. Check out this video of two workers putting water onto a kitchen grease fire:www.youtube.com/watch?v=cFQkFmanslEHere is a slow-motion of the fire / oil / water reaction:www.youtube.com/watch?v=tSkLeB46RS8Why does water in and oil fire explode? I thought water was the opposite of fire. The issue is not the water and fire but the water and oil. Oil burns at VERY high temperatures. Vegetable oil smoke point is about 230°C (450°F). Water's boil point is 100°C (212°F). Additionally, water is heavier than oil. When you combine this essentially what happens in the following:1. Water and oil are opposites and with water being heavier it sinks below the oil2. Water becomes instantly superheated to boil point3. Water expands and evaporates rapidly spraying/pushing/exploding the oil up and out.4. Little droplets of oil spray out and combust instantly.This is an example of why it is good to understand what makes a fire work and how you can stop a fire. The first step in crisis is: DO NOT PANIC! Below is a document Mr. Janz created to help you understand fires and Fire Extinguishers. pcs.rupertschools.ca/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/PCS-Fire-Safety.pdfBelow is Mr. Janz demonstrating how to use a Fire Extinguisher:pcs.rupertschools.ca/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/IMG_1032.mov~*~*~ Questions ~*~*~1. What are the following types of fires: A / B / C / K?2. Why is it important to know what kind of fire you have?3. What is the acronym PASS stand for with Fire Extinguishers?4. Why should you never put water on a grease fire? ... See MoreSee Less
