February Snowfall Warning
Well, the warm temperatures coulnd't last, it is Calgary after all! We had a big dumping of snow over the long weekend and temperatures will drop for most of the week. Please make sure you child is dressed for the weather of the day. Students take care of themselves by making sure they are dressed and prepared for the changing weather.
. Thank you to all of the parents and families that came to our Grade 5 Celebration of Learning last Wednesday. The students were so proud to show you and talk about their work in social studies. There will be even more to see and do for all of the other core subjects when you return for Parent-Teacher conferences on March 9 and 10.
