Foothills Brass – Building Blocks of Music

Musicians show how music is put together! Step-by-step they create songs using the building-blocks of tone, rhythm, melody and harmony. They highlight how these building blocks are used in great songs kids already know, such as Star Wars, Under the Sea, and the Harry Potter soundtrack! One lucky volunteer gets to be young Mozart and conduct.  Great fun and learning!

Elev8 Lacrosse

Elev8 Lacrosse will be at Woodlands School February 2 to 6.  Students will acquire lacrosse skills through a variety of developmentally appropriate movement activities in a varied environment while experiencing the health benefits that result from physical activity.   ELEV8 encourages students to interact positively with others while demonstrating etiquette and fair play. Beyond lacrosse, the physical components also focus on skills such as running, jumping, throwing and catching, which are fundamental to any sport.  Check out the linked video to see what students will be learning.

Valentine’s Day – Feb 14 (in school on February 11)

If students wish to share a Valentine with classmates, please ensure there is one for all students in the class. Thanks for sending non-food items only. 

Report Cards | Available Online February 24

Families will be able to view online student report cards for Kindergarten to Grade 12 on February 24, 2026. This is about one month later than usual.  The extended time is due to the labour action time away from school in October. Report cards may be viewed, downloaded and/or printed.  Parents and Guardians can sign in to MyCBE to view report cards. 

Inform | Kindergarten Registration 2026-27

Kindergarten registration for the 2026-27 school year will begin on Monday Jan. 12, 2026. Children can be registered for kindergarten if they turn five years old, on or before Dec. 31 of the school year they will be in kindergarten. For example, when registering for the 2026-27 school year, the child must turn five on or before Dec. 31, 2026.

Additionally, parents can find information on kindergarten registration on the public CBE website.

Registering early for kindergarten helps the school organize for the coming year. If you have an older child in grades 1-6, please register your kindergarten eligible child as early as possible. 

Open House Information

Many schools across CBE hold Open Houses for interested families early in the school year. This can be of particular interest for students transitioning from Grade 6 to Grade 7. Please follow the link for all open house information across CBE. CBE Open House Information As Harold Panabaker School is the designated CBE School for Woodlands’ students grades 7-9, we have included a link to their school website. If you have an interest in an alternative program in CBE, please note the date to submit an expression of interest form.   

School Council | Healthy Hunger Fun Lunches
