Show your School Spirit

In an effort to streamline and reduce cash* being handled at schools we have set up our “No Uni for a Toonie” days with the option to be paid online in schoolcash. This also makes it easier for parents.

We have established a set number of these days (7 “no uni” days) which means that you would pay 7 x 2 = $14 per child one time only and be good for the year!

Special thanks to the Contreras family for the generous donation of a variety of plants for the school garden. In the next few weeks the students will assist with harvesting them to send to the Food bank.

Welcome back to school and welcome new Auguston families!

This will be a year to remember. I think all of us are happy to put 2020-21 in the rearview mirror. While we did a truly heroic job of navigating the pandemic last year, I think it’s fair to say that none of us wants to do it again. But let’s take a minute to reflect on our efforts. Not only did we live through a once-in-a-lifetime pandemic, but we were also able to keep our schools open, take care of each other and – most importantly – fulfill our mission to provide the best possible education to our students.

Thank you Auguston Community! We made it thru a very different year. Covid then extreme heat. As these students came by to wish an end-of-year "thank you", we also pass along thanks for your support this year. 

All the best to our Grade 5 students as you move on to middle school! 

With the recent Ministry announcement that our schools will be returning to Stage 1 (“near normal”) operations for the coming year, I cannot help but reflect on the enormity of what we have accomplished this year in our province, and particularly here in Abbotsford. Put simply, our staff – all of them – have done a phenomenal job of keeping our schools open and functioning during a global pandemic, the likes of which none of us have ever experienced. This is worthy of celebration and profound gratitude.
