We’re building a collection of flexible seating options throughout our school. From desk bikes in elementary to standing desks in upper grades, we’re creating spaces that support student learning. Gr 5 just received a new standing desk, & students were quick to put it to use!
Grade 12 student Mr. Luke led a paper-building challenge during his teaching co-op with Grade 6! Using only paper and tape, students tested their creativity, teamwork, and problem-solving skills to build some pretty unique structures!
Grade 8 ELA students are using ThinkSRSD writing strategies! After writing essays, students became peer editors, highlighting topic sentences and supporting details while practising constructive feedback and strengthening their writing skills.
Citizenship 9 students used a symbolic $100 to distribute funding among various government services, including education, housing, healthcare, & transportation. Students had to consider the importance of each service & decide how limited funding should be divided.
There’s nothing quite like a game of Sharks & Minnows to get the blood flowing! A fun way for Gr 4 to start the day with movement, laughter, & lots of energy! Grade 12 student, Mr. Leo, played too, as a way to engage with students during his PE teacher Coop!
The Gr 2 class has been busy practising the “TH” sound, working in pairs to read short paragraphs & identify words that begin with “TH.” Ms. Charlene used this time to provided small-group reading instruction, focusing on each group’s individual strengths and areas for growth.

Today in Grade 8 Science, students put their knowledge of cell components into practice by drawing and labelling cell diagrams. A great way to reinforce their understanding of cell structures and their functions!
Our Grade 1s have made amazing phonics progress over the past 6 weeks! They’re using the FLOSS strategy in UFLI to help spell new words. We’re so proud of their focus and enthusiasm for sharing their learning! ❤️
Ms. Kendra’s Gr 7 Science class became the teachers! Students shared presentations about different natural disasters, teaching their classmates about what they had learned.
Students took notes on new information, interesting facts, and ideas they wanted to remember.
Our Science 10 students are putting their knowledge of chemical reactions to the test with an escape room challenge.
Students are solving problems, identifying the five types of chemical reactions, and cracking the codes to unlock the next set of questions.

As we honour the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation today, we are provided with an important learning opportunity to pause, reflect, learn about the truth, discuss our shared history and the harm caused by residential schools in Canada. More at nctr.ca.

🧡 Today, our Rebels honour Orange Shirt Day. Mrs. Iisha began the day with a smudge for all students, followed by the Honour Song. Classes will continue learning about the importance of Truth and Reconciliation.
Grade 7 is learning about plate tectonics while putting our Student Success Plan into action! Randomized groups give students opportunities to collaborate, share ideas & learn with different classmates.
Our Primary students have learned so much already! They’ve been practicing the days of the week, the alphabet, & the sounds that go with each letter.
We’re so proud of the progress they’re making! Keep up the great work, Primary!
