Christmas Concerts

Our Christmas Concerts are around the corner! Kindergarten to Grade 2 will perform on Wednesday, December 4, and Grades 3 to 6 will take the stage on Thursday, December 5. Each family can order two tickets per student to attend their child’s performance. If you need more , we will distribute extras tickets closer to the date. Doors open at 6:00, performances start at 6:15pm. Families are also invited to attend the dress rehearsal at 1:30 p.m. on the same day as the performance — no ticket required! Keep an eye out for the ticket order form, which will be sent home with your child on Monday. 

Scholastic Book Fair is coming to Acadia the week of Nov 25-29 

A colorful flyer with some of the awesome titles available at the fair will be sent home with your child’s wish list on his/her preview day. You can also preview the flyers on this linkScholastic Book Fair - Acadia School

The book fair trailers can be watched on the link below. Book Fair Trailers 

Parents – do you have two hours you could spare to help kindergarten or Grade 1 students write their wish lists, or help at the cash desk? Volunteers interested in helping with the book fair should contact Mrs. Watson in the library by email at alwatson@cbe.ab.ca
