Thetis Island Elementary School: Celebration of Success

We have all had a wonderful school year at Thetis Island Elementary School.  We would like to thank the community for all their amazing support during this school year. This includes all our weekly listeners, our seaquarium help (Andy Lamb and Ann Eriksson and more!)  Susanne Sarioglu for our Mason Bees, Capernwray, TIPA, TICF, and TICA. We are truly blessed to have this kind of community support. 

We raised a total of $465.00 this year selling our jams, dried fruits, fruit leather, apple sauce, salsa, relish and bread and butter pickles. All the students from K-5 participated at some point in this endeavour.  Half of these funds raised went to the Food Bank in Duncan and half is for our class to choose something special to purchase next year. 

Thanks from 

Thetis Island Elementary School Students, Genny Redman, Simone Luckham, Cathy Yeomans and Rhonda Andrews

Community Letters

It's a place to meet neighbours and participate in various activities.  It was my friends Pat & David Vickers who introduced me to Thetis Island.

When I volunteer at or sit on committees for the Hall I'm reminded of the Vickers for whom community was everything.  I like that.

Community Letters

What does Forbes Hall mean to me? 

Forbes Hall is our islands gathering place, a place that is open to everyone.

The hall provides many ways for islanders to participate and the activities reflect the interests of our diverse community.  The open policy at Forbes Hall encourages creativity participation and generosity. Islanders can simply book the hall, plan an event, organize an activity, share a skill or lead a discussion. You don’t have to wait for a specific program to begin, you can start one yourself.

I loved the neighbour to neighbour series where anyone could offer to share something they thought was interesting or they were good at – so may different people, activities and ideas were shared with this series, it expanded our knowledge and we ended up knowing our community & one another even better. 

I love that Forbes Hall has so much history; a remarkable number and variety of events have taken place there over the years, dinners, concerts, fundraisers, art auctions, weekly Soups On, exercise classes, private family events such as engagement parties, and yes, memorials (my parents included).

Forbes Hall is a place where you can meet your friends, meet new friends, engage in new activities, visit the library, and share a laugh. 

Forbes Hall provides the space for many different island groups to meet, discuss, plan and as a result, the entire community benefits. 

Our lives are all enriched by Forbes Hall.
