Orange Shirt Day
On Wednesday, Mr. Depew and Mrs.Palmer’s classes led the assembly for Orange Shirt Day. The assembly was held outside, and the weather was perfect for it. Students from these classes shared their learning about residential schools and why this learning is so important. Thank you to the parents who attended our assembly. At the front of the school, you will see a collaborative display of artwork around Truth and Reconciliation. Please take some time to stop by to see it.
Monday is National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. There is no school this day. Please see the news story that highlights some community opportunities for this day.
Parent-Teacher Conferences
Thank you to all the families who attended conferences on Thursday and Friday. The school was buzzing with activity. Students were excited to be able to show their parents their classroom space and meet with their teacher. We are looking forward to a wonderful school year together.
Student Code of Conduct
Parents are encouraged to read through the CBE Student Code of Conduct. This document outlines guiding principles and responsibilities as to what is expected from students and parents with respect to the school. The link to our website containing this information is here.
