God of all life…- Chaplain's Message
"May your love and light shine in and through me today
In a way that no mask can hide.
May my eyes dance with the laughter and joy
Replacing my hidden smile.
May my actions of care and concern
Speak louder than my muffled voice ever could.
And may the generosity of my heart
Radiate out through who I am
And how I respond to the world around me
So that others may not see my mask
But your image shining out
Moving in and through me today."
Amen
Br Michael Herry fms
Keeping Our Schools Safe
Please watch the video message from Assistant Superintendent, Mr. Paul Corrigan, as he discusses what a positive COVID-19 case would look like in our schools and what would happen if there was a positive case in the school. Mr. Corrigan also discusses what support the school can offer should your child have to quarantine due to COVID-19.
Your support during this time is greatly appreciated!
COVID - 19 information from Alberta Health Services
Alberta Health Services has updated their guidelines for those under 18 as of November 2nd. Click to access the latest health checklist.
As a parent/guardian you are required to complete a daily health screening check for your child each day before they come to school. We need everyone's help and commitment to these health checks, as well as making sure that your child stays home if they are feeling unwell or displaying any symptoms.
