October 2025 Principal’s Message

As the crisp autumn air settles in and the leaves turn brilliant shades of gold, October reminds us that change can be both beautiful and inspiring. Despite the uncertainty in Alberta’s education landscape, one thing remains unwavering in our school: the dedication, heart, and positivity of our staff and students.
Every day, I witness teachers who arrive with smiles, creativity, and a deep commitment to your children’s growth. Their passion shines through—in classrooms, and hallways—proving that education is about more than policies or politics; it is about connection, curiosity, and care. Our teachers continue to give their best because they believe in the bright future of every student, and for that, we are profoundly grateful.
As we move through this season of change, let’s take a moment to appreciate the everyday acts of kindness and perseverance happening within our walls. Thank you, families, for supporting your children, our teachers, and the entire school community. Together, we create a place where students can learn, grow, and thrive—no matter what is happening beyond our doors.

Hot lunch: An exact date will be determined after the pending possible strike action. The parent council is always looking to have more parents assist with hot lunches; please contact any of your parent council representatives if you are interested.
