Flakes the musical concert: 
Our amazing cast members from our kindergarten, grades 1 & 2 outdid themselves in last night's performance!  Each and every one of our Snowflakes & Snirts swirled in and the audience members were captivated! We would like to thank the amazing volunteers who helped support this production by making all the costumes and the amazing set. We could not have pulled this off without you.  Another big thanks goes out to our parent council for hosting the bake & snacks sale. Spring will be the next big production for our Grade 3-6 students, where Mr. Symington will need another crew of volunteers.  If you are interested OR would like to find out further information on how you can lend a hand please email him: rysymington@cbe.ab.ca
