WAAG for September 24, 2021
Welcome to the WAAG!

Welcome to the WAAG!

Before we begin, I'd like to remind you that the school is open this year for you to visit or volunteer in your child's classroom. Contact your child's teacher to find a good time for your visit or if you want to volunteer, just make sure your CRC is complete and, again, contact your child's teacher to see how you can help. It's that easy. Make sure to mask up when you enter the building. :)

National Day for Truth and Reconciliation

National Day for Truth and Reconciliation

September 30, 2021

As you are aware, our federal government passed legislation in June to make Sept 30 a statutory holiday to honour survivors, families and communities, and to ensure the history and legacy of residential schools remains a vital component of reconciliation. Accordingly, there is no school on Sept 30 for staff and students. Please wear orange and find meaningful ways to observe this day. The link below provides an opportunity for you and your family to learn more.

PS. The above "Every Child Matters" art design was created by local Comox Valley indigenous artist, Andy Everson.
