Gently Used Books

Do you have any gently used books, or books your children are no longer reading? We would LOVE to take them off your hands at the school for a special project Mrs. Hunter and Miss England are working on. Please drop your gently used books off at the main office. Thank you so much!

Sr. High Drama - Newsies Performance June 5-8

Newsies, the Broadway Musical, is coming to town!! The Bashaw Sr. Drama class is presenting Newsies on June 5-8 at the Bashaw United Church.


Newsies is based on a true event that happened in New York City at the turn of the century that changed the lives of working children. The play highlights the power of standing together to create change against all odds!


In this musical, homeless newsboy Jack Kelly befriends two newcomers to his trade, brothers David and Les Jacobs. When publisher Joseph Pulitzer sets new rules that make it harder for the young newsboys and girls to make a buck, the kids go on strike. The result is an epic movement that is shared with energetic songs, dance and heartfelt characters. This is all portrayed by our amazing drama students who have created choreography, memorable characters and so much energy!!



Be sure to get your tickets to come out for an experience you won’t forget!

Automated Attendance Calls Automated Attendance Calls

zoom_out_map
Please note that our automated attendance calls go out at 9:25am daily. If your child is not at school and we have not heard from a parent/guardian, you will AUTOMATICALLY receive the call indicating that your child/student is not at school.


On days that buses are cancelled, please be advised that attendance typically takes longer and calls are likely to go out before we have gotten through all voicemails, emails, and phone calls. We apologize in advance for the inconvenience.


If your child has an appointment or is sick, please call to let us know, otherwise they will be marked as absent (unexcused). We mark attendance as PARENT CALL when they're away with permission and ILLNESS when they're home sick.


REGARDLESS of the reason ALL students MUST sign-in when they arrive after morning O Canada and MUST sign-out if they're leaving the building (this excludes if they're leaving to go for lunch and intend on coming back - NO sign-out/sign-in is required for lunch).
