Arbour Vista P.S.

Hello Arbour Vista families,

Hope you had a fantastic Victoria Day weekend celebrating with friends and family! It's always wonderful to take a moment to appreciate the beauty of our Canadian heritage and the blessings of community. Whether you spent the time relaxing, exploring the outdoors, or enjoying festivities, here's to cherished memories and the spirit of togetherness that makes Canada great!

Sunscreen

With warmer weather approaching, we encourage families to send sunscreen to school for their child’s use during outdoor activities. Please note that aerosol cans are not permitted. Sunscreen must be in cream or lotion form and should be scent-free to respect allergies and sensitivities. Kindly label the container with your child’s name.

Reminder of the Upcoming Grade 7 vaccine

Public Health is returning to Ecole Arbour Vista Public School to provide the second doses of Grade 7 vaccines on: Thursday May 22 nd , 2025.  Please click here for additional details.


Family Fun Food Orders DUE!

Our Family Fun Fair is fast approaching. It is scheduled for May 29th. Don’t forget to get your Harvey’s orders in! Orders close TODAY on May 20th.

Kindergarten Orientation

We will be welcoming our new cohort of JK students to Arbour Vista for their orientation on May 20th from 5:30-6:30. Looking forward to meeting our new Vipers.

Lost & Found

With the warmer weather, students have forgotten all about their missing sweaters and jackets, and as a result our lost and found bin is bursting at the seams. Please encourage your students to look through the lost and found items before  the end of next week. All remaining items will be donated  following May 23rd.
