Hello Families of Coyote Creek,

We have just finished a terrific week celebrating indigenous learning with our First Peoples in Residence week! We had opening ceremonies, indigenous facilitator presentations all week and beautiful closing ceremonies this afternoon.  

Please see below for beadwork inspired art and Orange Shirt Day images from Ms. Fontana's class!

We hope our families are able to spend time this long weekend celebrating indigenous culture and commemorating the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation alongside Orange Shirt Day on Saturday, September 30th.

We had our first PAC meeting for the 2023/2024 school year! We had an excellent turnout and want to thank all of the parents who attended last night for their support in our school community. 

We are proud to introduce our new PAC for 2023/2024 following last night's meeting and voting event:

President: Athena Melo

Vice-President: Raj Kainth

Treasurer: Laura Cuffley 

Secretary: To be determined

DPAC Rep: Saveena Senghera

All parents are welcome to attend our PAC meetings during the school year. Thank you for your continued support!

Sincerely,

Coyote Creek Staff
