At Edgewood, we recognize we are on the traditional, unceded, ancestral lands of the Lheidli T'enneh.
Hadih, Bonjour, Edgewood Parents!
T'was the week before May long weekend and all through the school, students continue to learn and do things, that are really, pretty cool!
Despite the cooler temperatures and wettish weather, spirits remain high. There are so many things happening, both in and out of the classrooms for students to engage in. read further in the newsletter for May 16th for more details on the upcoming Talent Show, grade 5,6,7 volleyball, our last Outdoor Club session for grade 2 and 3s, grade 7 leadership, and our June Fun Day (aka Sports' Day).
This month there has been a focus throughout schools on District assessments of student learning in regards to reading, writing, and math. Students and teachers have been very busy engaging in and completing these. All students in each school across our District will participate in the same assessments. The goal is to have these finished by the end of May.
Please note the many important dates to take note of for the next 6 weeks. (Look left :)).
Buckets! We need buckets! The Grade 7 parent group is hoping families could spare an ice cream bucket, a 5 gallon or a 10 gallon bucket that can be donated for this year's Dunk a 7. Any clean bucket of any of these sizes would be greatly appreciated. Lids are not needed.
Speaking of grade 7s. It's that time of year again! We need a grade 7 baby/toddler picture. These can be emailed to rblanchard@sd57.bc.ca at your earliest convenience.
Thank you never seems enough for those who go above and beyond. We'd once again like to thank our PAC parents for all they do. It truly takes a village. Please consider attending June's AGM as a way to support the PAC.
