¡Hola Dalhousie Families!
What a great start it was at Escuela Dalhousie this week! Our first two days of school were filled with smiles and excitement from everyone. Thanks to everyone who attended the Welcome Back BBQ and the Playground Grand Opening on Friday. It was a great way to start the school year! Thanks to our volunteers, the Parent Society, our School Council, and the Dalhousie’s staff for their help on Friday.
Communication
Please sign up for SchoolMessenger, and visit our Dalhousie School Website regularly for any school updates and events. Most school messages are sent to Dalhousie families through SchoolMessenger. It’s a mass communication tool that allows schools to easily and securely send email, phone and text messages to parents and guardians. Messages are sent to the parent contacts on file at your school. If you have any questions or issues, please get in touch with the Main Office.
Fun Lunches
The Dalhousie School Council and Parents Society are excited to bring back fun lunches this year! These lunches are a hit with many of our students, offering them a chance to enjoy a special lunch once a month. This program helps raise a small profit that supports school initiatives through the Dalhousie Parent Society. If you already have an account, you can continue using it. If not, please register using this link: https://healthyhunger.ca .
We are also always looking for volunteers to help distribute the lunches at school. Sign up on Sign Up Genius and use the following email in the search bar: dalhousieschoolparentsociety@gmail.com.

End of the day School Pick-up
When waiting to pick up your student at the end of the day at the East doors, for the safety of our students, we ask that you wait at the edge of the compound. Teachers will bring out the classes and will begin to dismiss students once teachers have visual contact with the adult.
School Council and Parent Society
Our First Meeting has been move to September 19th, 2024 at 6:30 pm. The session will be in-person and also via Microsoft Team.
Parking Zone on Dallyn Street
Please do not leave your vehicle unattended in the Drop-Off Hug-and-Go zone. We need all the space along our school to park all 6 buses. Calgary Parking Authority will be patrolling again next week. Also, please do not cross the street and walk between the parked buses. Dallyn Street gets congested and for the safety of our students and families, we hope for your collaboration in respecting these expectations.
