On the January 26 No Uni Day we celebrated our construction workers with our Dress Like a Construction Crew Day!

There are no guarantees in life, but wherever you want to go or can imagine going, education is probably the best way there. How does a child in Kindergarten one day become an architect? How does a grade nine student become an arthroscopic surgeon or an agriculturist? How does one become an electrician or a chef? You guessed it - education. This is why I often describe education as the bridge to anywhere.

As we start each school day at McMillan Elementary, we seek connections with colleagues to chat about how we are feeling, the Netflix show we watched the night before, or how our kids' team performed at last night's game. We seek a morning connection to ground us for the emotional, social and mental demands of our day. Our students are no different. They, too, need this foundation to set them up for a successful day of learning.

Happy Holidays! 

The leadership club spread Christmas joy through the school handing out treats and wishing all students a relaxing winter break. 

Thank you to parents who volunteered and contributed supplies to the Pancake Lunch! And an especially BIG thank you to Lacey Evans, Hot Lunch Chair, for coordinating this event for students!

Welcome to December. It’s been a busy Fall here at Auguston Traditional, and it doesn’t look to be slowing down anytime soon! We had many events over the last month, like our Remembrance Day ceremony, the Book Fair, Jersey Day and our Craft and Entrepreneur Fair. We’ve also had some awesome after school programs starting up and – of course – lots of great learning happening throughout the school.
