Dear Andrew Sibbald Families,
We hope you all enjoyed your spring break. We are looking forward to welcoming students back this week!
As we continue our initial planning for the 2023-2024 school year ahead, thank you in advance for returning the slip of paper that will be sent home with your child this week around your child's registration at Andrew Sibbald for Grades 1-6. Student registration numbers help us plan for staffing and initial decisions around student learning.
Thank you, Community Helpers!
Our Kindergarten students have been learning about superheroes and the important roles that our very own superheroes within our community hold, including Calgary Fire Fighters and the Calgary Police Service. Thank you to Mrs. Hatchette for organizing Constable Steve Hill and his canine partner, Cali, to meet with the Monday/Wednesday class this week and the Tuesday/Thursday class on April 20th. Thank you, also, to the other members of the Calgary Fire Department who have visited with students this year. We appreciate your willingness to connect with our school community!
Parent Session – Tuesday, April 4th Understanding Anxiety
CBE and AHS' next session in the five-part series aimed at supporting families and caregivers in growing their understanding of child and youth well-being will be on Tuesday April 4, 2023, at 6:30 p.m. The session focuses on Understanding Anxiety.
This event is offered virtually at no-cost to participants. Everyone is welcome to participate, whether their child attends a CBE school. Families and caregivers are key partners in a student's education. We also understand the shared role in supporting student well-being and how critically linked well-being is to student achievement.
Please see here for the link to join the session and for more information.
