Dear Woodlands Families,

Our annual run took place last Friday. Thank you to everyone who volunteered, organized our run and donated to the Terry Fox Foundation. We raised $985 dollars!

Monday October 19 is a Professional Learning Day for Teachers and support staff. Woodlands is also site to a polling station in our school gymnasium.

Stay Informed

School Council

We are grateful to our School Council and Parent Society for the many ways they support student learning and help strengthen our Woodlands community. Their dedication, time, and commitment make a meaningful difference in the experiences we provide for our students.

Next week, they will be hosting one of our most anticipated annual events, the Halloween Dance! Events like this are only possible because of the incredible efforts of parent volunteers.

Volunteer

Parent volunteers play an important role in creating memorable experiences for our students and helping to build the strong sense of community that makes Woodlands such a special place. Whether you can help at a single event or throughout the year, your support is greatly appreciated.

If you are interested in volunteering, please connect with School Council through Instagram at @woodlands.school.council or by email at woodlands@cbe.ab.ca.

Supporting a Safe School Community

🅿️ Parking & Respecting Our Neighbours

Thank you for helping us be good neighbours by respecting local parking regulations and showing consideration for residents during busy arrival and dismissal times.

🚫🐕 No Dogs on School Property

We would also like to remind families that dogs are not permitted on school grounds. This expectation supports student safety and reflects both CBE (Administrative Regulation 6004 – Animals in Schools and City of Calgary City of Calgary Responsible Pet Ownership Bylaw  prohibits dogs on school property, including playgrounds and sports fields.
