This week our afternoon Kindergarten class visited the Rotary House to sing carols and deliver special cookies and Christmas cards to residents. A big thank you to Evermore Kookie for donating cookies and supplies for this outreach. They even came in to lead a special cookie decorating class with some Grade 3 and 4 students in order for us to bring cookies along to hand out.
ATA Strike Commencing on Monday; School Closures Starting Oct 6th
As a result of the Alberta Teachers Association (ATA) rejecting a proposed deal from the Teachers’ Employer Bargaining Association (TEBA), all FMPSD schools will be closed to students starting Monday, October 6, 2025, unless a new agreement is reached or strike action is otherwise averted. Additionally, all yellow school bus routes will be suspended for the duration of the strike.
In light of the ongoing strike, all extracurricular activities, including sports, clubs, and after-school programs, will be temporarily suspended.
As there is no definitive end date for the strike, FMPSD is unable to provide a timeline for when normal operations will resume. We will continue to provide timely updates as we receive them from the Ministry of Education and Child Care.
