The CBE Dates of Significance Events Calendar
Dear Families,
We have 4 important messages for you this week
- Gratitude for the Terry Fox Run
- Good Grief Traffic Issue
- Get ready for picture day on Thursday
- Get signed up for Fun Lunches, the Halloween Dance, and the Casino!
The Terry Fox Run
We want to thank our community for coming out to the Terry Fox Run and for supporting the Terry Fox Foundation. Thank you to the parent volunteers who helped it run so smoothly! We surpassed our goal raising $2363.85. Remarkable! Thank you!
A Parking Nightmare!
More than 10 parents have reported drivers are now stopping on Fish Creek Boulevard to drop off their children! This is so dangerous; Fish Creek Boulevard is a throughway. We would hate to see anyone rear ended or worse yet get hurt exiting a vehicle! Yikes!
Parents, if you see this, please report through 311. This may tip the scale in getting Calgary City Police out to help us.
Wanted – Hot Wheel Tracks for the Den
Following the interests of students, we are wanting to set up a physics challenge in the Den and are looking for Hot Wheels tracks. If you have any you can donate, we’d love to see this student initiative come to life!

- Tickets are now available on healthy hunger at www.healthyhunger.ca
- Families are welcome to come dressed in your costume, but remember no masks, or toys / replica weapons will be allowed
- Please register the total number of tickets under only one of your children in your family, as wristbands will be sent home the week of the dance to be worn and checked at the door.
- Each individual will require a ticket including parents, & parent supervision is REQUIRED.
- Some snack food and water will be available for purchase. Cash only
- There are a maximum number of tickets available as per fire code, so if tickets sell out, unfortunately none will be available at the door.
The gymnasium does get VERY LOUD, so please come prepared and understand that there is no quiet area of the school available to families that evening.
Volunteers are needed to assist on the evening of this dance event. The parents could not make these events happen without you! The kids love these dances and we all want to continue to make them happen! You can sign up at Sign Up Genius
Let’s be safe out there!
Nancy, Julie & Staff
