Join us for READ IN Week - October 5-9, 2026!
When we read, we open doors to new adventures and discoveries. This year's Read In Week theme, Let Stories Soar, celebrates how stories can take us to amazing new worlds and open our minds. Whether you're reading a book, diving into a comic or listening to a story, you can let your imagination soar. The magic of storytelling is always within your reach, ready to take you anywhere you want to go! Stay tuned for how St. Brendan will be celebrating reading during Read in week!
Terry Fox Run 2026
We're Running for Terry!
On Thursday, September 24, St. Brendan students and staff will participate in our annual Terry Fox School Run, celebrating Terry's courage, determination, and legacy of hope.
This year, our school fundraising goal is $1,000, and we invite all families to help us reach it! Donations support the Terry Fox Foundation and cancer research across Canada.
Families can make online donations through our school fundraising page:

Donations will be accepted until October 31, so there is plenty of time to support this important cause.
Thank you for helping our students continue Terry's dream of a world without cancer. Together, we can make a difference!
"One day, there won't be a schoolyard in Canada that doesn't take part in the Terry Fox Run." – Terry Fox
