Hello Hillhurst Families,
It has been a wonderful week of community building! It was great to see many families, both online and in-person, for the first Hillhurst School Council meeting on Wednesday evening, and at the well-attended Family Picnic last night. Hillhurst staff are also looking forward to welcoming families next week for Learning Conferences.
Here is a look at our week ahead:
- Hillhurst Terry Fox Run on Tuesday Sept. 24 from 9:30 to 10:15
- Learning Conferences on Thursday Sept. 26 (evening) and Friday Sept. 27 (day). You can book your conference online via your MyCBE account – the bookings will be open as of 9:00 am tomorrow morning.
- Please remember that there is no school for students on Sept. 27 because of conferences.
- Monday, September 30 is the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. There is no school for students on this day.
Recently, we have had some enquiries related to learning opportunities for children and youth outside of school hours, such as babysitting and basic first aid training. Child Safe Canada is an organization that offers a range of learning opportunities related to safety, community awareness, well-being, and babysitting (of course!). They are a community-based organization, and their website can be found HERE
Thank you for the opportunity to serve the Hillhurst community. Please know that you are welcome to reach out at any time with questions, ideas, or concerns. Have a great weekend everyone!
Kristin and Shafali
