Mother’s Day / Father’s Day
This year, our school will be shifting away from creating traditional Mother’s Day and Father’s Day cards or crafts in the classroom.
We recognize that families are diverse, and these holidays can look different for every child. Our goal is to ensure that all students feel included and supported in our learning environment.
Instead, classes may engage in activities that celebrate appreciation, gratitude, and important relationships in ways that are inclusive of all family structures.
Thank you for your understanding and continued support as we strive to create a welcoming and respectful space for every student.
Reminder about fees and agendas
As our classes have taken part in school field trips, we would ask you to please go into your My CBE account and pay your fees as soon as possible.
Field Trip and supplies fees will come up immediately.
Agendas are in School Based Optional School Fees. These are for grade 1,3, and room 7. If you have not already done so, please add one to your cart.
Thank you so much in advance.
