We’re only a few weeks away from February, which is Black History Month. Black History Month is a time when people across Canada learn about and honour the history, achievements, and contributions of Black Canadians and their communities. Throughout the month, we will celebrate Black excellence, learn from history, and reflect on how we can continue to act, today and into the future. We’ll start with a look at the Canadian perspective, then throughout February we’ll dig into the work being done in the UGDSB.

Le Carnaval de Brisbane (Winter Play Day) - Thursday, January 22
Thursday, January 22, Brisbane will continue the Canadian tradition of celebrating winter with “Le Carnaval de Brisbane”, a winter play day full of outdoor fun!
Students will participate in many snowy activities outside and will be offered a cup of hot chocolate to enjoy. During our last block of the day, students will warm up and watch a movie with their classmates. Movies will be selected from the school board's approved catalogue.
As students will be spending most of the day outdoors, students MUST come to school Thursday with a complete set of winter clothing: snow pants, winter coat, hat, mitts. An extra pair of mitts and an extra pair of socks are strongly encouraged! If you need any help accessing winter clothing for your child, please contact your classroom teacher or the main office.
We are looking forward to celebrating the winter weather! Vive le Carnaval!
