Message from the Office!
Dear Parents,
We would like to take the opportunity to thank all members of the École Our Lady of Perpetual Help school community - our students, parents, staff, and district office staff. Congratulations to all of our students on a successful year and wish you a restful / fun-filled summer vacation!
June always brings us farewells. École Our Lady of Perpetual Help Catholic School would like to say a very well-deserved thank-you and best wishes to M. Godin, Mr. Moes, Miss Mitchell, and Mrs. Yode who will be leaving us at the end of June.
M. Godin, as many of you know, has been with us for 29 years!! His expertise and love for the school and the students will be missed. We wish him well during his retirement.
Thank you to Mr. Moes for his hard work with our students as our Music/Band/Outdoor Ed teacher. We wish him well as he continues on in his career.
We would like to Miss Mitchell for her spiritual guidance as our Junior High Religion Teacher. We wish her well on her future endeavors.
Last, but not least, we would like to thank Mrs. Yode for all of her hard work and dedication to the student of École OLPH. All the best to you!!!
We hope you enjoy the summer holidays, whether you remain in Sherwood Park or are travelling abroad.
School for students will begin again on Tuesday the 3rd of September 2019.
On behalf of all of our staff, it has been a pleasure to work with all of you this school year and we look forward to seeing you at École OLPH School next year.
May God bless you with a peaceful summer.

Giving Thanks for Summer
Thank you for the warmth of the sun and the increased daylight.
Thank You for the beauty I see all around me and for the opportunity to be outside and enjoy Your creation.
Thank You for the increased time I have to be with my friends and family,
and for the more casual pace of the summer season.
Draw me closer to You this summer.
Teach me how I can pray no matter where I am or what I am doing.
Warm my soul with the awareness of Your presence and light my path with Your Word and Counsel.
As I enjoy Your creation, create in me a pure heart and a hunger and a thirst for You.
Amen
