Important Dates for next week:  

We made it! 

As we wrap up an incredible school year, I want to take a moment to celebrate the bravery, kindness, mindfulness and responsibility of our students, teachers, and families. This year has been filled with memorable moments that have shaped our vibrant learning community. 

Our dedicated educators have inspired curiosity, fostered creativity, and supported every student’s journey with warmth and care. Students have demonstrated remarkable perseverance and enthusiasm, embodying the spirit of lifelong learning we cherish here. 

Thank you to all parents and guardians for your unwavering support and partnership. Together, we’ve created a safe and nurturing environment where every child can thrive. 

As we look ahead, let’s carry forward the lessons and friendships from this year, embracing new opportunities with confidence and excitement. Enjoy a restful summer, and we can’t wait to welcome you back for another fantastic year of discovery and growth! 

Looking for just a few more volunteers! 

The Acadia School Council requires only 6 more volunteers to work at our July 4 and 5 casino at the Deerfoot Inn and Casino.  The funds raised from this experience help to support our student with enhanced learning opportunities and upgraded resources for our students.   

If you are able to volunteer for these last 6 positions or if you have questions about what positions/shifts are left, please contact our amazing Casino volunteer Cole Porter at acadiacasino@gmail.com 

Thanks for your continued support. 

All Sport One Day 2025 

All Sport One Day is a fantastic, free sport discovery event designed specifically for children and youth aged 6 to 17. It offers a unique opportunity for young participants to try out a new sport or physical activity in a fun and supportive environment. 

Whether your child is curious about learning a new skill or simply eager to get active, this event is an excellent way to introduce them to the world of sports without any financial commitment. By participating, kids can explore different sports, discover their interests, and potentially find a new passion, all while making new friends and staying active.
