Dear Ramsay School Families,
This the final Monday Message of the 2021-2022 school year! Have a wonderful summer ahead. I hope it includes a just-right amount of fun, adventure and rejuvenation.
Thanks for everything, Ramsay. You are amazing!
Welcome, Mr. Turner!
Last Friday afternoon, it was announced that Mr. Shane Turner has been appointed as Ramsay School's new principal. Mr. Turner has a wealth of experience and knowledge that he brings to Ramsay and sincerely looks forward to getting to know each of the students and families at Ramsay in the fall.
Grade 6 Farewell
This afternoon at 1:00 p.m. we will get to honor our Grade 6 students and say farewell. It will be an awesome afternoon celebrating their accomplishments with families. Thank you to Mrs. MacLeod, Mrs. McGrath and Mrs. Serra for supporting the students around their Grade 6 farewell celebration.
Activity Day Fun
It was a wet and windy Activity Day, but also very fun. Our Student Council members did a great job running the horseshoe station, barrel racing, line dancing and a few other stations. The students loved the lasso art with their buddies. Thanks to the parents who helped organize and support the fun hotdog food truck for the students during Activity Day and for Carol who organized Harry the Horse to come down from the Stampede to visit.
