Each year the Abbotsford School District must approve a balanced budget by June 30^th.

The District Reading Link Challenge took place on Thursday, March 13, at Clearbrook Elementary. Way to go Auguston Participants: Chichi, Saleena, Elizabeth, Mira & Sarah! Thank you parents for driving students to this event and thank you, Mrs. Deol (Div. 4 Teacher), for coordinating this activity for our students!

A few weeks ago, I shared my thoughts on the benefits of physical activity for both our minds and bodies. As we approach March Break, it feels timely to highlight the importance of rest and relaxation. Taking a break is something I personally struggle with, and I know many of you do, too. Our principals and vice principals, in particular, often find it challenging to take a lunch break when there are hundreds of students to supervise. Despite our best intentions to take a moment "later" to eat and catch our breath, sometimes "later" never comes.

The Reading Link School Challenge took place on Monday, February 24.

True confession: I enjoy physical activity. I start most days with vigorous exercise. I wake up at 5:00 am Monday to Friday so I can be unrushed in my morning ritual, which includes fresh espresso, a scroll through various social media feeds, CBC radio, and yes, a fitness workout.  

Students were invited to participate in Valentine's No Uni Day by wearing red, white, pink or purple on Thursday, Feb. 13! 

Thank you Mrs. Howe (Auguston Parent & Div. 1 Gr. 5 Teacher) for the pics!
