Another exciting week is in the book as we move towards the end of November. This week our GYPSD school board trustees came to tour our school. School Council cooked pancakes for us all. Miss Weninger and student volunteers put on an amazing book fair. Mrs. Riggs hosted Picnic in the gym and lunchtime crafts. The grade 4s had grandparents program. And to end of the week the 5/6 class had their weekly hotdog sales.
Next week is a little calmer though there are some important events going occuring. On Wednesday, School Council Chair Mrs. Carla Gylander, GYPSD Board Chair/Lobstick Trustee Melodie Bobliek and myself will be among those attending the Ad Hoc Committee on Wildwood Bussing meeting. This meeting is to ensure we are carefully considering the bussing plan for the new angulated school that will be starting in September of 2026. If you have thoughts that you would like shared please contact one of us and we will be happy to include your perspectives in our discussions on the matter. On Thursday, I will be going to a District Learning Team meeting in Edson to discuss this years School Improvement Plan, budgets and other topics of importance across the division. Miss Weninger will be Acting Administrator that day.
Wildwood students love to shovel snow and we are always in need of shovels. If you have any you would like to donate to the school please drop off at the office.
On December 12th we are going skating at Evansburg Arena. Permission slips have been sent out today. There is a PDF Below.
With weather dropping into the negatives it is important that students are fully dressed for winter including gloves, hats, snow pants, and boots. Outside recess continues until we hit a combined windchill/actual temperature of -20, please dress accordingly. It is a great idea to have some extra hats and gloves included with students extra clothes in their lockers.
If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out by calling the school at 780-325-3858 or emailing me at alanstoy@gypsd.ca
Sincerely,
Alan Stoyles
Principal
