Good afternoon Colonel Irvine School Community,
下午好! 学文学校社区
We’ve had a crazy week of Calgary weather. With the nicer weather heading our way, we’d like to remind students to follow our dress code for school.
Today we hosted a Student Talent Show. All the performances were great. Ask your students about them. Thanks to our Grade 9 Leadership class, STUCO and Ms. Lee and Mr. Cheema for helping to plan and make this a fun time for all.
This week we had our badminton tryouts. We had over 150 student athletes showing off their skills and vying for a spot on one of the three teams we’ll have this season. Good luck to all students trying out.
We are beginning to get plans in place for end of the year celebrations. Grade 9 Farewell celebrations are set for June 23 and 24. June 23 will be their activity day and the morning of June 24 will be the Farewell ceremony that parents are welcome to attend. A student dance for the 9’s only will be in the afternoon. All events will take place during school hours. Planning has already started as the students were able to vote on the theme for this year's festivities. As we continue to finalize the details for the Grade 9 Farewell, we will keep you informed of any further updates or important information.
We will also hold our annual Awards Assembly for all grades on Wednesday, June 25th in the morning. Parents/guardians of the students receiving awards will be sent invitations.
We are also looking forward to welcoming back Mr. Wright on Monday. Ms. Vibert has been in his class and will now move over to cover Ms. Corenlius’ class as she departs to start a family.
