Important Information

  • Walkathon news
    Thank you to everyone that has already raised money for our Walkathon. We have currently raise just over $2700.00. Please be sure to send in your child’s tally slip for week two if you raised money so that your child’s name can be entered into the draw!
    - If you or a family/friend are donating online, it is very important that you please choose a Giving Group rather than just donating to the general fundraiser. This will ensure that your child gets the credit for the donation. A reminder that our online donation page can be found here

  • Professional Development days- october 14, 17
    A reminder that school is closed for students on October 14 and 17th as the staff is having a special two day professional development session. The staff has the privilege of working with Misty Paterson for two days to dive into the redesigned curriculum and reshape how we approach education in this framework. Please note that we have not added extra pro-d days this year, we have just put two together given the nature of the session. We will not be taking part in the October 21 Provincial Pro-D session that other schools will be a part of.

  • Maintenance Update

    EXPERTS NEEDED

    Do you specialize in trades or project planning? We have several projects/repairs coming up over the next little while and we need your help. If you have expertise to offer (either in the form of practical assistance or being available to advise/consult on your area of specialization), please introduce yourself via email at maintenance@cloverdalecatholicschool.ca The Maintenance Coordinator has an MA in History and is self-taught in the art of Looking Up DIY Projects On YouTube And Mostly Successfully Figuring Out Stuff That Way, so she needs all the help she can get!
