Remembrance Day

We would like to invite you to our Remembrance Day service on Wednesday, November 11th. The service will begin at 10:45.

We welcome any parents and family members that are joining us and who are current or former members of the Canadian Armed Forces to wear their uniforms. Also, students who are members of clubs like Guides, Scouts, and Cadets are encouraged to wear their uniforms and insignia.

We look forward to welcoming you to our Remembrance Day service.

🎒 Reminder: Toys, Stuffies, and NeeDohs at School

We kindly ask for your help in keeping all personal toys, stuffies, and popular trend items like NeeDohs or fidget toys at home.

While we understand these items are comforting and fun, they often become a major distraction in the classroom and on the yard. Additionally, when personal items get lost, broken, or ruined at school, it can cause much upset for the children.

Thank you very much for your ongoing understanding, cooperation, and support in keeping our classrooms focused on learning.

Progress Reports

Progress Reports, Kindergarten Initial Observations, and Term 1 IEPs will be shared with parents—both digitally and via hard copy—on November 12th. We will be conducting in-person/ telephone parent-teacher interviews on Thursday, November 19th between 4:00 - 8:00 PM. Please watch your inbox for more details on interviews.

To view your child's report card online, please ensure you are signed up for the Parent Portal. If you haven’t registered yet, you can do so HERE.

We are collecting our annual $30.00 Student Activity Fee to support class excursions, guest presenters, workshops, and enriching learning activities throughout the school year. Covering this one-time fee upfront avoids multiple collections later and allows teachers to plan meaningful curriculum events.

Payments are now open on SchoolCash Online, and we kindly ask families to submit them as soon as possible to assist with school planning. If your family is experiencing financial difficulty at this time, please reach out to the main office in confidence.

School Council

A big thank you to our School Council for organizing the purchase, gathering, and delivery of dozens of pumpkins! The students (and educators!) had a lot of fun with the pumpkin raffle, and creativity was in full bloom. Our Fall'O'Ween Ball was also a huge success!

Thank you to all of our amazing volunteers who helped make these special events and lasting memories possible for our St. Isabel Eagles!

Inclement Weather Days

In order to ensure the safety of all students, parents/guardians are required to report all absences, including those on inclement weather/bus cancellation days. When buses are cancelled due to inclement weather, schools will remain open unless otherwise notified.  If your child is unable to attend school on an Inclement Weather day, please report their absence as you would on any other school day.  SafeArrival can be used for reporting  - enter Absent Approved (AA) with a comment of “bus cancellation” or “inclement weather”.  This is an important step in ensuring every student is accounted for every day.

Please note: If buses are cancelled due to inclement weather on a scheduled food day (such as Pizza Day or Subway Day), the lunch will be postponed to the next day that buses are running.

Attendance Matters: Every Day Counts

Regular attendance is essential for student success and building a strong sense of belonging. As parents and caregivers, asking questions and staying actively engaged in your child’s day can make a big difference. Here is a graphic about talking with your learner about school.
