Principal's Message

Admin Message - May 26, 2023

​Dear McKenzie Lake Families,
This morning we welcomed those that have volunteered at our school in varying capacities, to attend our Volunteer Tea.  Teachers provided snacks and refreshments and Ms. Kvicala organized the entertainment, having different classes perform songs using spoons and djembe drums, followed by grade 3 students singing What a Wonderful World.  Volunteers support the school in a variety of capacities, whether it be supporting in classrooms, the library, preparing materials at home or attending field trips.  Each volunteer has a positive impact on McKenzie Lake School and we cannot thank you enough for your contributions!
Throughout the year, Grade 1 students have been learning about how our communities past and how it has been influenced by events or people of the past.  On Thursday, MLS had over 100 Grade 1 students arrive at Heritage Park eager to explore and connect their classroom learning by taking a trip into the past.  They arrived at school with high energy and excitement about their field trip, and ended successfully with some falling asleep on the bus ride home!
This week our Grade 5 students worked with Stream of Dreams to design and paint their fish.  Their fish mural will be installed on the fence by the west playground this coming week!  During our School Council meeting, we had a few parents state that they were able to volunteer to help with the Grade 5 Stream of Dreams installation, if needed.  Grade 5 teachers were able to secure enough volunteers from their classes, so we will not require additional support.  Thank you so much for volunteering to step in, if needed. 
Library Books
Mrs. Knox is requesting all library book be returned this week.  For any outstanding books not returned, a reminder will be sent home before invoices for replacing the book are sent home.
Are You Moving or Transferring Schools?
Families or individual children who will not be returning to McKenzie Lake School for the 2023-2024 school year are requested to let the school know as soon as possible by calling the office at 403-777-6500 ext. 0, or emailing mckenzielake@cbe.ab.ca.  Informing the school of your intentions to transfer will facilitate the smoothest transition possible.
2023-24 Transportation Registration
Yellow school bus service levels and proposed fees for the 2023-24 school year were posted and shared with CBE families this past week.  Registration is now available using your MyCBE account, and families must register by Sunday, June 11 for students to be added to routes for the start of the next school year.  Please register by the deadline if you think your child(ren) will use transportation this fall. You can cancel before the end of September with no financial penalty.
Grade 4 Student Social Action Project
Grade 4 students will continue to accept book donations up until June 12.   They will be hosting their used book sale on June 13, 14, and 15.  More information regarding the book sale will be provided closer to the date.
 
Sincerely, 
Dayna McComish​
