Let’s Go, Oilers!

Students in our grade 3/4 class have authored and illustrated books on a topic they feel they know a lot about. Students each chose their own topic and wrote about hockey, animals, home countries, school, families, and our faith! Way to go 3/4s! #ECSDFaithInspires

Our grade 2 class had a fun time writing circle stories this week! They are so proud of their hard work and are very excited to share their stories! Great job, Grade 2! #ECSDFaithInspires

To honour the significance of Holy Week to our Catholic faith, our school gymnasium has been transformed into a place of reflection and prayer as students explore the stations of the cross through the eyes of Mary. #ECSDFaithInspires

As we journey through Lent, we will be joining many schools in our division family in collecting funds for the Edmonton Eparchy in support of our brothers and sisters in Ukraine. We can’t wait to watch our garden grow. #ECSDFaithInspires

Thank you to our grade 2B class for the beautiful heartfelt prayers. We pray for Ukraine. #ECSDFaithInspires
