JUNE 21 - NATIONAL INDIGENOUS PEOPLES DAY | REMINDER
The Calgary Board of Education strives to ensure that all our schools are safe and caring places for all students and staff. As a public school, we welcome and celebrate students from diverse backgrounds, perspectives and beliefs.
Here at Sam Livingston School we have honoured and recognized our unique community with events such as la Semaine de la Francophonie, Orange Shirt Day, Pink Shirt Day, Black History Month and more.
June 21, is National Indigenous Peoples Day and a time to a day dedicated to honoring the rich cultures, traditions, and contributions of First Nations, Inuit, and Métis peoples across Canada. We will recognize this occasion by participating in seed planting, a native plant scavenger hunt in our Envirolab and some group activities that foster a sense of belonging.
For tomorrow’s activities we are reminding students to:
- Bring a rock that will be painted
- Wear your Famille de Sam / Sam Family colour

DONATION OF LOST AND FOUND ITEMS
Our Lost and Found is growing quickly! Each year, we donate unclaimed clothing and items to charitable causes. On June 26th, any remaining items in the lost and found will be donated to Made By Mama. Teachers have been asked to visit the Lost and Found as a class in the coming week, but I encourage you to also remind your child to have a good look for missing items!
REGISTRATION CONTINUES...
Please note that we continue to accept registrations for students in our catchment area. Though we are closed over the summer months, registration can occur until June 28th, or when the school office is once again staffed (beginning August 19, 2024).
