Dear Parents and Guardians,
This will be our last full newsletter for the 2024/25 school year. It's been a great year with lots of learning, fun, and growth. I look forward to next year with both our returning and new students.
This past week, grade 6s finished their PATs. We had a pizza lunch on Wednesday, and on Friday, Mr. Ehnes organized our recognition of Indigenous Peoples Day, which is on Saturday.
Next week on Monday our Grade 6s are off to Jasper for their year end trip.
Our Bike Rodeo will be on June 24th from 12:30-3:00.
Students will be provided with hotdogs for lunch on this day, this is being sponsored by Chip Lake Cattle Corp.
Students will have the chance to learn and practice safe riding skills and rules of the road through a variety of stations. We will have two Peace Officers in attendance to help students learn about bike safety! Students will also have the opportunity to demonstrate their safe riding skills on a bike ride along 54 AVE.
We ask that you drop your child's bike off at the school on June 24th in the morning. Bikes can be lined up near the bike rack! Bikes must be picked up afterschool on June 24th. Children must have a helmet to participate, if you do not have a helmet please let Miss Weninger know as soon as possible (sammweni@gypsd.ca).
If you would like to volunteer on this day please contact Miss Weninger (sammweni@gypsd.ca)
Wednesday will be our last day for students and we have our year-end awards. Parents are invited to join students for a Pancake breakfast organized by School Council before we start our ceremony at 10am. Following the awards, report cards will be available for pickup.
Our school office will be open until June 27th and will reopen on August 18th. If you have inquiries over the summer, please feel free to email me at alanstoy@gypsd.ca
Have a great weekend and summer everyone.
Sincerely,
Alan Stoyles
Principal
