Sports and Activity Day – June 24 – Volunteers Needed
Our annual Sports and Activity Day will take place the afternoon of Monday, June 24. Please email Ms. Lachapelle (kglachapelle@cbe.ab.ca) if you’re available to volunteer from 12:00pm-4:00pm. You will be in charge of setting up, running, and taking down the station. Due to the nature of this event, a police check is not mandatory for volunteers.
Stand-Alone Modular Classroom Changes
Alberta Education approved funding for the demolition of one modular classroom at Battalion Park School in March 2023 due to its poor condition. Demolition of the modular reduces expensive recurring operating expenses (i.e., heat, electricity and maintenance). This summer, CBE will proceed with the demolition. Safety measures will be taken to ensure the safety of students and community members who use the playground or school site while demolition occurs. This includes enclosing the area from the public and operating within specific hours according to municipal bylaws.
The work is anticipated to be completed by mid-October 2024. To ensure student safety during the beginning of the 2024-25 school year, precautions will be taken. This includes enclosing the construction area and working around school hours to avoid disrupting learning.
If you have any questions about this work, you may email accommodation@cbe.ab.ca.
