Remembrance Day Ceremonies
We will have two Remembrance Day ceremonies on Thursday Nov. 7 to accommodate all students being able to see it. Parents and guardians are invited to either one of them if they are interested. They will be held in the Main Gym. We will have one at 9:30am and the other at 1pm.
Traffic Safety
Please do not do any drop off/pick up on 26th Ave in front of the school before and after school. With the construction happening it is extremely unsafe, illegal, and has caused some near misses.
Fall Break
Students last day of classes is Thursday November 7 and then classes resume from Fall Break on Thursday November 14. The office and school will be closed during the break.
Grade 7-9 GW Social Event PJs and Popcorn
Grab your friends and comfiest pajamas and join us for an action/comedy, holiday themed movie at Cineplex Odeon Westhills Cinema on Friday November 29. Movie starts at noon, please arrive by 11:30 to allow time to grab your snack and take your chance at winning a give away! Please bring your ticket QR code or your order # to gain entrance.
(Parent/guardian’s email must be provided when purchasing the tickets as a waiver will be sent out 2 weeks prior to the event)
Deadline to purchase tickets is November 21, no exceptions.
Lost and Found
Our lost and found is overflowing. Please have your child check it and/or come check in at the main office and take a look. It is extremely helpful to label your child’s clothing so when we go through it we can return it. In a couple of weeks we will be collecting the lost and found and donating it to a school with children in need.
