Update

Thank you to all our Copperfield families and students for amazing start to the new school year. It was wonderful to reconnect with everyone and to welcome new students into our building and classrooms. On Thursday, we hosted a short assembly to introduce the staff and sing our school song together as a school community.

We look forward to another great week of learning at Copperfield School.  Students will continue to become familiar with school routines and classmates, with a focus on building collaborative communities within their classrooms and our outdoor spaces.  Each Friday, you will receive a Weekly Update from your child’s teacher with the information for the week ahead. If you have any questions, please email your child’s teacher. Their links are on the Copperfield School webpage here: Home - Copperfield School (cbe.ab.ca).

Mr. Patry and I will be outside in the mornings and after school each day, and we look forward to connecting with families throughout the year. We wish you a wonderful long weekend!

Copperfield has heart! 

Sincerely,

Colette Pedde

Principal, Copperfield School

Bike, Scooters and Skateboards on CBE Property

It is very exciting to see the number of students riding their scooters and bikes to school. It is important for students to bring a lock and use the designated racks to secure their items. For everyone’s safety students are reminded to walk their bike, scooter and/or skateboard while on school sidewalks and grounds before and after school.

City of Calgary Responsible Pet Ownership Bylaw

We would like to remind our community that according to the City of Calgary Responsible Pet Ownership Bylaw, pets are not allowed on school grounds. We understand that all members of our community are responsible pet owners and consider their furry friends to be safe members of the family. However, it is in the best interest of all that we adhere to the above bylaw for the safety of the pet, the owner themselves, and most importantly our students.  Interested students can quickly create unsafe situation for the pet and pets can create emotions of fear for others.   The restricted area for pets includes the entire playing field, the grassed areas on school property and all sidewalks that lead to school entrances according to the bylaw. We appreciate your consideration and understanding.
