Dear Beaubien Families,

As the holiday season approaches, we want to wish you and your loved ones a joyful and restful break. We are so grateful for the continued support and partnership of our families and community. You truly make Beaubien a special place.

Winter break begins on December 22nd, and we look forward to welcoming students back on Tuesday, January 6th. We hope the break is filled with rest, laughter, and special moments.

Ms. Ludford will be spending the break with her husband and three boys, enjoying family time and hoping everyone returns in January happy and still getting along. Mr. Lukic will be soaking up the magic of the holidays with his wife and their two young boys, making memories along the way.

Thank you for being such an important part of our school community. Wishing you a wonderful holiday season and a happy, healthy New Year.

Warm regards,
Michelle Ludford, Principal
Nikola Lukic, Assistant Principal
