Back to School

Welcome back to school! After what has been a busy couple of weeks we are starting to get settled into classes and routines here at Auguston Traditional. It has been wonderful to see the excitement from our students as we move into our new year and as they make new connections with teachers and friends. Being new here as well I can say that this is an amazing school community full of dedicated staff, parents, and volunteers and also some pretty great students. I have really appreciated the warm welcome I have received and am looking forward to an awesome year ahead.

Spuds and Salad Luncheon

Thank you very much to the team of parent volunteers who prepared and served the potatoes and lettuce that were harvested from the school garden for more than 200 students to enjoy. As well, thank you to the Auguston Traditional PAC for their support of this event by funding some of the tubs of potatoes, the lettuce transplants and the luncheon supplies. Additional thanks to the BC Agriculture in the Classroom Spuds in Tubs program who also funded a few of the tubs.

CRCs for Volunteers/Noon Hour Supervisors

Criminal Record Checks

All Noon Hour Supervisors & Volunteers at Auguston MUST have a Criminal Record Check. If you are interested to apply to be a Noon Hour Supervisor or to Volunteer (in the classroom, on field trips, etc.), please see the process below for completing a Criminal Record Check.

Note that the Volunteer forms are completed annually every school year and those will be available in September. The Criminal Record Check lasts for 5 years so you could start the process now for September if interested.

Indigenous plants in the school garden

Our school garden has some new plants! The raised garden box closest to the parking lot now has a salmonberry bush, a red huckleberry bush and some salal. Special thanks to our Indigenous Support Worker, Elder Tina Lakey, and Indigenous Support Worker Assistant, Mrs. Joyce Brozozog, for assisting students with planting them.
