UBC Facilities, Student Housing and Community Services, and Safety and Risk Services are encouraging all parents with children in Grade 9, who wish to participate, to bring their children to work for the day.

Due to the nature of the work done at the university, and the potential safety hazards involved, a guided day of activities (including lunch) will be planned for students who are unable to spend the day on the job with their parent. Parents are also invited to the lunch!
