February Swimming 

We had an awesome learning experience this past week with our swimming lessons! It was amazing to see our learners take on a different kind of challenge and to persevere through learning new skills. 

This great learning experience would not have been possible without your volunteer support! We are so thankful for the parents that gave up their time to help make this activity possible. From parents that carved out a couple of hours from their schedule to parents that were on breaks from more shift-style roles that had multiple days available it was amazing to have so many parents to help ensure we could get everyone to the pool, in the pool and changed to get ready to head home…these parts seemed like the most challenging at times!

Our second group of swimmers will go to the pool the week of March 30 - right after spring break. This will be grade 1, grade 5 and the Cole and Low grade 3 classes. We have found in past years that having Kindergarten attend these days is a bit too challenging with the length of their day and the travel back and forth between the pool. Kindergarten will be preparing for different field trip and outdoor activities in the spring ahead!

Grade 4 Alberta Education Assurance Survey

Alberta Education completes an annual survey to parents in grade 4 (and select upper grades) across the province. This survey:

• Provides feedback to Alberta Education and Childcare on students’, teachers’, and parents' / legal guardians' opinions about their school, their schoolwork and the opportunities their school provides. 
• Provides important information on the quality of education students are receiving. 
• Results are: 
• • used by schools, school authorities and the government to see what’s working and what needs to be improved; and 
  • shared with the whole community. 

Grade 4 parents would have received an email with a link to complete the survey over the past couple of weeks. You coils search your inbox for: “Alberta Education and Childcare Assurance Survey” to locate this email.

This is the final week for completing the survey. Our grade 4 students will also be completing the survey in class this week.

Thank you for your time and feedback!
