Principal's Message
Dear Parent(s),
As we begin our second week of Learning@Home I have to say I'm impressed with our students efforts towards their studies. In most cases, our attendance on-line is positive with some classes at 100%. The safety of our students and staff is the utmost important but as with the rest of my staff I hope our students are back with us soon "in person".
Please take the time to read the letter below from Superintendent Lewis addressing the most recent announcement from the Alberta Government.
Sincerely,
D. Lorne
Learning In Action
Genius Hour project
The Grade 5/6 class continue their work on their Genius Hour project during Online Learning this week. Genius Hour is a movement that allows students to explore their own passions and encourages creativity in the classroom. It provides students choice in what they learn during a set period during school. Students were able to continue working on their project from home, with the help of breakout rooms on Google Meet. Students were able to meet with their partners and group members to work together.

Mindfulness Scavenger Hunt
At-home learning can be mentally exhausting and sitting behind a computer can drain our energy and motivation to do other things! I challenge you and your children to complete this Mindfulness Scavenger Hunt. Being mindful is a state of being aware or conscious of something by focusing on a present moment and accepting your feelings, thoughts, and bodily sensations. This is used as a therapeutic technique. I hope through this scavenger hunt you can find a sense of calm and connection!
