Ski Trip
(Grades 5-8 )
This year we will be going to Minnedosa Ski Valley on:
February 11, 24, and March 2.
We have negotiated a deal with Ski Valley where we can now offer
snowboarding for $50 for the day. The maximum number of snowboarders
that we can accommodate is fifty students.
Our regular ski package is $40. We can accommodate all students who want
to pay for regular skiing. These prices include transportation by school bus
to and from the ski hill, lessons, lift ticket, and rental equipment. To keep
these prices low we need to make sure that our school buses are full when
transporting students to and from the ski hill.
***Therefore we are trying a new system this year where students will pay
their fees between January 5th and January 30th , 2015, and then classes of
students will be grouped together to ski on one of the ski days. This will allow
us to fill each bus and minimize our transportation costs.
Parent Council News
Parent Council would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone
who came to the “Winter Wonderland Family Dance.”
The turnout for the dance was incredible and everyone had a great
time. We look forward to planning more events like this in
the future. The support from students, staff, families, and
friends was much appreciated!
Also, another thank you to all those who supported our
Fall Fundraiser from Fundscrip.
Parent Council is looking forward to 2016 and all the exciting things it
brings. We hope everyone has a great holiday season with family and
friends and that the New Year finds you happy and healthy!
