Dear Parents,

Thank-you again to those who joined us at Heritage Park. The Grade 2’s had a great day learning about Calgary’s past.

Although summer holidays are just around the corner, June is going to be a very busy month!

Important Dates and Reminders:

Week of June 4- 8^th we will be learning how to play football for phys. Ed. outside. Please remember to dress for the weather!

Tuesday, June 26^th – Year End Mass at St. Luke’s Church at 10 am. Please let me know if you are able to walk with us to the church, as we will be needing volunteers to join us.

What will we learn about in June?
