 Buenas Tardes familias, 

We have some exciting things happening at our school! Our beautiful mural project is now nearing completion. This incredible initiative was made possible through the fundraising efforts of our Parent Society and the generous support of our families. Over 500 students have had the opportunity to paint a section of the mural, making it a true community artwork. 

We are also excited to be starting our Lacrosse residency this month. This program was extremely popular with students last year, and we know our kids are excited to participate again and build their skills. Finally, our Grade 5 and 6 students will soon be visiting the Rothney Astrophysical Observatory. This is the first time our school will be taking part in this experience, and it will be a fantastic opportunity for students to explore astronomy and science in a hands-on environment. 

Thank you once again for supporting our school community by participating in the many fundraising activities organized by our Parent Society and School Council. 

Don’t miss our meeting on March 11, 2026, at 6:30 pm. During this meeting, the administration will be asking our families to share their perspectives on our school development plan, our school budget, and fees.

Have a great weekend!

Sebastien Fournier,

Principal
