Missing Indoor Shoes

Over the last few weeks we have had a number of indoor shoes go missing in the school. Thank you to the students and families who have been impacted for their understanding. We are requesting that all families please talk to their children about respecting others property. At AFS we talk about the Pillars of Care: care for self, care for others, care for this place. We would like to ensure that no more shoes go missing. If everyone looks after their own shoes, and only moves other shoes to the closest shelves to be helpful, the problem should be solved. Thank you for your support.

School Council

Our next council meeting is this Thursday, January 30 at 7pm. We look forward to seeing all parents there. You can join us online or in person. The doors to the school will be open at 6:50, the online meeting around the same time. Come learn about the parent evening on March 17, Purdy’s chocolates, our casino, the school dance, among other things. Mrs. Warkentin is our teacher presenter this month.

Be in the know about the topics for conversation by checking out the agenda. Learn more about previous conversations by checking out the minutes from our November meeting.

Literacy Week

Families across Calgary are invited to join the Calgary Board of Education in celebrating Family Literacy Week from Jan. 26 to Feb. 2, with a focus on environmental learning through the theme “Learn to Be Green, Together.”  

The CBE Literacy & Early Learning Team have prepared a variety of information and activities to help families engage in meaningful learning at home and at school. Reading together or doing learning activities at home is crucial to a child’s learning and development.
