Accountability Pillar



Parents – you will receive a survey in the mail from Alberta Education.  This survey provides valuable information to the school about what we are doing well and how we can improve.  We would encourage parents to watch for this survey in the mail, complete the survey and then send it back in the mail with the self-addressed stamped envelope that is provided.  Thank you for attention with this matter.  The survey should be arriving within the next week or two.

Regions Project



The Great fours are studying the Alberta regions and the Grade five are studying the Canadian regions. Some of us are creating a field trip to our region. Others are creating a poster on one aspect of our region. Some of us are even creating brochures to convince us to visit our region.

Snack size bags of popcorn are $2 each. The top selling classroom will win a pizza party!!!

Regions of Alberta and Canada






We have just begun our region of Alberta and Canada study. Here we were reading for understanding and taking notes on different areas. Some of these included landforms, climate, bodies of water, and vegetation.
