Dear Parents,
At Elboya School we are
actively working to improve traffic safety. Beginning on Monday, February 2nd,
2015, Elboya School Patrols will be at the corner of 47th and 6th Street at the
L shaped crosswalks. We will be discussing the new patrols with students on
Monday, February 2nd. Staff will also be outside in greater numbers after
school for a period of time while we adjust to this new situation.
-park 5 meters from any
crosswalks
The Calgary Board of Education
is inviting parents to complete a short survey on transportation. The survey is
located at https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/5K3973T
It will be open between
February 2nd- to 16th, 2015. The
attached letter gives further details.

Drama News – S. Park
I am very excited to announce
that we are now starting the Spring Drama Production process! The title of the
show will be announced once the right to produce it has been given to us, so
next week I hope to announce the name of the two One-Act Plays we will be
presenting. ALL students are welcome to audition and auditions will be held the
second week of February. Stay tuned for more information next week. If you have
questions please email Mrs. Park at sdkoehler@cbe.ab.ca. Thank-you!
Painting
Painting begins at Elboya
School on February 2, 2015 and lasts until the end of March. This will occur
during school hours. We ask for your patience as we receive this much-needed
upgrade to our school’s appearance.
Canadian Parents for French
CPF is holding a French family
fun weekend February 27th, 28th and March 1st. in Jasper.
For more information regarding
the weekend go to http://ab/cpf/ca/activites/calendar/
CPF is an excellent resource
for parents and students.
If you are interested in more
information please contact Nancy Paton npaton@shaw.ca who is a parent here at
Elboya and our liaison for CPF.
School Registration
We are now taking registrations
for the 2015-2016 school year. If your child attends Elboya at this time you do
not need to re-register. Registration for the French Immersion and the
Intensive French programs will take place after February 5th.
With the new school year
starting in September of 2015 we are wondering if any parent within the area is
planning to open a day home in the fall. We have had parent inquiries regarding
Kindergarten aged students and care. Parents are looking for accommodations
that would fit in with their specific Kindergarten schedule. If you feel you
would be providing a daycare service of this type please call me at (403)
777-7760 ext. 0. Thank you!
