Students participated in Liturgy of the Word, 2 faith formation sessions, games, a guided nature prayer walk, praise & worship, and announced a new branding of our faith leadership groups. We bid a fond farewell to YLL & a reenergized hello to IGNITE TEAM!!

K is for Krazy Kites. Mrs. Mac’s Kinders made kites for “Krazy Kite Day” and then they took to the playground to see if they would fly. Well chaos and hilarity ensued and it seems safe to say that they had a great time learning about kites!

Monday’s thunder put a damper on our “I is for Insect” day but Mrs. Mac’s Kinders went out bright and early Tuesday to look for bugs! The students found ants, worms, centipedes, and other creepy crawlies and it was such a fun way to start the day. Later, we learned how to build jigsaw puzzles for our J day. After building one as a class, we worked in small groups to build more puzzles. It was hard but the students were so persistent and worked great in their teams. Great job, Kinders!

Just a reminder there is no school Friday, June 6th! Enjoy your long weekend.


Grade 2's will be visiting the Cold Lake Museum today!

Today is Track & Field Districts at Walsh Field in Bonnyville. Good Luck Coyotes who qualified!


Last Friday was “H is for Hatchery Tour” day in Kindergarten and we all got to go to the Cold Lake Fish Hatchery to learn about the important conservation work they do there. Even though some of the students started the tour not wanting to touch the fish, by the end of the hour students were holding and petting the fish, some even being so brave as to kiss the fish! It was a wonderful time - thank you Cold Lake Fish Hatchery for hosting us!




For “G is for Game Day” KEM went to the park and learned how to play Chain Tag. The kiddos had a great time chasing each other and trying to form the longest chains, unfortunately Mrs. MacNiven was having too much fun and forgot to get pictures of it. We sat in the shade and drank lots of water because it was so hot before we had a bit of free play time on the play structure.

Today was Jump Day! Thank you to everyone who donated to Jump Rope for Heart! Our two students to raise the most were Phoebe and Kadence! ❤️ Students were asked to dress like superheros today as well.




Tomorrow is Jump Day for Jump Rope for Heart!
Dress like a Super Hero day!


KIF went to the Cold Lake Fish Hatchery! 🐟



On Wednesday it was Fairy Tale Day in Mrs. Mac’s room and they had Pinnochio, Cinderella, a fairy, Snow White, Prince Charming, and Peter Pan join their class (as well as the Paper Bag Princess’ dragon). It was a magical day!
