Principal's Message
Good afternoon families!
If this is the first message you hear from our office you may have very recently joined our school. We are attaching a copy of our September newsletter here so that you can be sure you have not missed any important info.
Our online lessons have started today and we are happy to hear that, besides a few correct link hiccups, things went well. Our teachers report that they were happy to meet their students, and are excited about the coming year! A reminder for our new families that the live online lessons are recorded and posted, so they are available to view (or review) at any time.
We have a few activities coming up to highlight:
On Friday September 17th at 9am, we will have a brief opening assembly for all students. This is an opportunity to be welcomed by your administrators and get a few important messages. Teachers will be distributing the assembly zoom link to their students on Wednesday.
In the Vermilion area we are having a Corn Maze visit on September 17th, at 1:30 (see poster here), Click this link. Corn Maze
- Vermilion and Area Welcome day at the Heritage museum/playground with hotdogs and games on September 24th. See poster below.
In the Edmonton/Sherwood Park area, there is a Welcome day picnic in the park planned for September 20th. See poster below.
In Lethbridge, there is a Welcome Back Party in the park on September 17th. See poster below.
In Calgary, there is a Welcome Back Party in the Calgary Farm Yard on September 24th. See poster below.
Correction, our September newsletter mistakenly said there was no school on September 30th. There is indeed school that day, with many lessons incorporating First Nation, Métis and Inuit content to honour National Truth and Reconciliation day. We encourage all staff and students to wear an Orange shirt on this day.
Remember to contact your teacher with any questions and concerns first, and if this does not resolve the issue please contact the office so we can try to help out.
Happy September!
God Bless,
Michel Despins and Dwayne Coffey
