NEW Online Registration for children’s Sacramental Preparation in 2026/27 school year is now open. Grade 2 and older. Any questions call Natalie at the Parish Office 780-467-5470.

A person is welcomed into the Catholic Church through the three Sacraments of Initiation: Baptism makes you a member of the Church, the Eucharist feeds and strengthens you, and Confirmation helps you to be a witness to your faith. Through this sacrament God pours out the Holy Spirit to strengthen us with His gifts and anoints us to be more like Christ

School Calendar

To help keep all our students safe during morning arrival, we kindly ask all families to follow our drop-off and parking procedures.

🚸 Designated Drop-Off Area

Please use the sidewalk along the right-hand side as you pull into the parking lot for student drop-off.

🚌 Keep the Inside Lane Moving

The lane behind our school buses (the inside lane) is a free-flow lane. Please do not stop in this lane to drop off students, even briefly. Students are walking between buses, and stopping in this lane creates a safety concern.

🅿️ Need to Park?

If you need to park and walk your child into the school, additional parking is available in the Early Learning Centre parking lot and along the North side of our school building.

Thank you for your cooperation and for helping us keep our Holy Redeemer students safe!

We would like to welcome back Mrs. Lindsay Andreychuk as our School Wellness Worker. Please stay tuned for her updates in this section.

Service Delivery

Each school is staffed with a Family Wellness Worker (FWW), who works under the direction of their School Principal and the Assistant Superintendent of Faith & Wellness. FWW's receive clinical guidance from a Registered Psychologist.

The primary function of the Family Wellness team is to provide social and emotional support to students and families. Family Wellness Workers meet with students and parents to assess needs, set goals, identify required supports, and plan appropriate interventions.

They collaborate with school system staff and community resources to build a “village” of support around students/families who are struggling.

Referrals

Parental consent is required for FWW services.

Referrals to the Family Wellness Program may be made by students, parents/guardians, school administration, teachers, or other school staff (e.g. school counsellor or inclusive learning facilitator, etc.).

Parents and guardians can access these services by speaking with the Principal or contacting the school's Family Wellness Worker directly.
