Volunteer Requests:
Field Trips
Our long-awaited Urban Community Tour is Tuesday, June 14th! Thank you so much to all of the volunteers who have signed up. We would gratefully welcome one more volunteer. Please email Elysa or Tara if you are interested and able to join us for a full day excursion of the Calgary Tower, Stephen Avenue, Devonian Gardens, and public art appreciation! Thank you for considering!
We would also appreciate 2-3 volunteers to walk with us for our final seasonal trip to the Fish Creek Ridge. This leisurely walk and observational sketching trip will be at 1:30 on Thursday, June 23. Thank you!
Bulletin Boards, Etc.
If you love wielding staple removers and enjoy children's artwork, I would very much appreciate help taking down our classroom bulletin boards and tri-folds, as well as sorting art into pizza box portfolios. This is very flexible and can be any time in the next week and a half. Please email me at [email protected] if interested. Thank you so much for considering!

Urban Community Tour
Tuesday is going to be a full and memorable day for the grade ones! I'm thrilled to see a lovely forecast of 20 degrees. Please ensure your child is dressed for the weather with hat and sun protection, and wearing comfortable, sturdy walking shoes. Students will need water bottles, an easy-to-eat, low mess lunch and at least 2 snacks with all necessary utensils. Thank you for helping to prepare the grade ones for this exciting day!
Packing Up
I cannot believe how fast this year has flown, but here we are! Please send 2 sturdy bags (ideally labeled -- sharpie or tape is fine) for this Friday, June 17. Students will begin to pack up and take home their duotangs and belongings!
