We’re excited to share that the School Leadership Committee (SLC) has chosen the Regina Humane Society as our Charity of Choice for this school year! This means that any fundraising events we organize will go toward helping animals in need through the great work the Regina Humane Society does in our community. That said, we also know there are lots of other important causes out there. So even though we’ll be focusing our money donations on one charity, we’ll still be supporting other organizations in different ways — like collecting items and helping raise awareness. We’re looking forward to a fun and meaningful year, and we hope everyone will join us in making a positive impact — both for animals and for people in our wider community. Thanks for your support! Sincerely, The School Leadership Committee
Family Service Saskatchewan, a network of family service organizations across the province, offers free counselling to support the mental health and well-being of children, youth and their caregivers. Their services are available in person in communities throughout the province as well as by phone and video. Counselling can help families navigate challenges such as behavioural concerns, family conflict, trauma, grief, anxiety and depression. While their counsellors do not provide formal diagnoses or assessments, they work with children and families facing a wide range of experiences. They provide a safe, supportive and non-judgmental space where children, youth and caregivers can express themselves, explore their emotions and work towards positive change.

Our special 100th anniversary cookbooks have arrived at the school and are on sale now - we hope that each family sells/purchases at least 3 if not more. They will make great Christmas gifts! Funds raised will go toward off-site educational experiences for our students with any residual funds going toward the new playground. Your child will bring home an order form on Friday - and thanks so much in advance for supporting this project!
