Thank You to all families that attended our back to school barbecue yesterday! It was a great turnout and it was wonderful to see everyone back again! Please click here to see last night’s powerpoint presentation with important infromation. Parent Participation presentation can be found below.
Spirit Wear day- Please be reminded that for Spirit Wear days, students are invited to wear their Spirit Wear tops (can be purchased online) or a top with CCS colours. Uniform bottoms mandatory on Spirit Wear days.
Remind App- Please ensure that you have signed up for the Remind App. This app is being used only for emergencies and school closures. Please see Wednesday’s blog for information
Pick Up- Please ensure that you have read the slide on last night’s presentation about pick up procedures. I would also like to request on behalf of our neighbours at Bethshan Gardens that you not park in front of their fire hydrant. Once we get into next week, parking on our property should be better- the first week back is always a bit of a challenge- thank you for your patience!
Grade 7 camp- Please keep our Grade 7s in your prayers as they embark on their camp adventure next week! Parents may pick up their students on Friday at 2:00pm at the school.
Catholic Christian Outreach Ministries- One of our EAs’ daughters is currently serving as a CCO missionary. Please see her write up below as well as her appeal for sponsors.

Please note the update in the Parent Participation Program; this year CCS will be implementing a No show fee.
No Show Fee: In the case of a "No Show" to an assigned /registered and scheduled task, a $25 fee per task, per person will be implemented. A "No Show" is when a parent fails to participate in an assigned activity or task without any prior notice given to the organizer/coordinator of said activity or task.
From the Parish:
Thank you for your continued support! Have a safe and restful long weekend!
God Bless,
Mr. Heah and Mrs. Krammer
