It was a whirlwind of a day at St Paul’s today! Professor Jamz was here to kick-off our Fundraiser, and our Parent Council prepared pancakes and fresh fruit for the entire school! Thank you to all our volunteers for making this day so special!
The 7/8 class had a blast 💥 snowshoeing in our winter wonderland ! I can’t think of a better way to get the day started. Thank you Madame Hay for some good Canadian fun!

We are expecting a Polar Vortex in the region for the next 3 days which will bring some extreme cold & wind chill to our area. In order to minimize the effects on students, we will potentially shorten recesses or keep students inside. Please dress warmly! #PolarVortex
Our Festive Lunch was a huge hit! The whole school packed the gym and were served with care by our amazing St. Paul Parent Council! A surprise guest sleigh-ed in from the North and we capped it off with a festive bingo led by Mrs Malone and our Lightning Service Council.
It’s beginning to feel a lot like Christmas at the St. Paul’s Christmas Concert! Filled with tiny bells, drum sticks and a choir full of angels, I can’t think of a better way to ignite the Christmas Spirit! Thank you to all our staff, students and parents for a magical night!
Today we honour and remember the brave men and women who served and sacrificed for our freedom. May we always remember their commitment to peace. #LestWeForget #RemembranceDay

St. Paul’s enjoyed a beautiful day for our school wide Terry Fox event! The ‘No Matter What’ campaign reminds Canadians of Terry’s strength, courage and perseverance, and inspires them to embrace this mindset in their own lives. We surpassed our fundraising goal!
