Library Books Due 

Please have a look at your home for any outstanding and overdue library books.  Circulation closes on Monday, June 8, and all books will be due on Thursday, June 11. 

Snacks and Cutlery 

Our front office has seen a high volume of students asking for snacks and cutlery lately. Please ensure you are packing enough food to last your child through the entire school day and with cutlery if needed. This is particularly important on Fridays, due to our later dismissal time and lack of a lunch recess. Thank you for helping us keep our students fueled and ready to learn! 

Parent Educational Requests and Next Year Class Assignments 

Parent Educational Requests have closed for next year's class assignments.  Class lists for next year's students are determined through a careful lens of teachers working together in teams to ensure the best possible classroom composite.  Teacher decisions are rooted in a strong instructional and social/emotional rationale.  We stand by our instructional decisions, which have been made with the best insight and in a collaborative approach between teachers.  Thank you for your support in this matter.  

Upcoming Casino 

The Parent Association's 18th charity casino fundraiser is coming this fall! Why is this SO exciting? Funds raised at this event bring more experience and resources to our school. The last casino raised $82,995.30. Sign up to volunteer before the end of June and you will be entered to win an early bird draw prize!

School Council/Parent Association 

Did you know? Many of the experiences and opportunities students enjoy at Woodbine are made possible through School Council/Parent Association. Through Casinos, volunteering, and family support, they facilitate meaningful experiences that benefit students across our school. Follow along with our #BecauseOfSchoolCouncil campaign on Instagram (@woodbinecbe) as we highlight just some of the ways their impact is felt. 

#BecauseOfSchoolCouncil: Thank you to School Council for coordinating the large school order for Woodbine apparel and distributing it to our classrooms.

Volunteer Police Clearance Processing for 2025-2026 

As we approach the final weeks of the school year, please be advised that we are no longer initiating new police clearance applications in the month of June.   This is due to the approval process typically taking several weeks - new applications would not be finalized before the school year concludes. We look forward to resuming the clearance process for new volunteers in the fall! 

Registration Open for Grade 6 students transitioning to Junior High - My Transit Ride 

In August, the CBE and Calgary Transit will offer a transit bus orientation program called "My Transit Ride" for junior high and high school students transitioning to Calgary Transit. 

The program is about an hour long and consists of a 20-minute presentation by Calgary Transit, followed by an orientation of a transit bus. Staff from CBE Transportation and Calgary Transit will be available for information and/or questions.  

Sessions are free but families are encouraged to register to attend. Registration opened on Monday, May 25. 

We are excited to offer this safety training and transit orientation to increase student comfort levels and ability to ride Calgary Transit safely and efficiently.
