Dear Copperfield Families,
It has been another wonderful week of learning at Copperfield School! Our Grade 3–5 students had a fantastic time participating in inline skating with Alien In-Line Skating. A huge thank you to our amazing School Council for supporting this opportunity.
The upcoming week brings more rich learning experiences. Shane Cunningham, one of CBE’s Diversity and Learning Support Advisors, will be sharing oral storytelling of The Legend of Napi and the Rock in honour of National Indigenous History Month. In addition, our administration team will be visiting classrooms to read Indigenous stories with students.
We also look forward to welcoming the volunteers who RSVP’d for our Volunteer Appreciation event on June 10 at 1:45 p.m.
Thank you for your ongoing partnership and support. Copperfield has heart!
Warm regards,
Colette Pedde Allyson Heggie
Principal Assistant Principal

LEAVING EARLY FOR THE SUMMER
Is your family leaving the school early for summer vacation before June 26, or are you coming back after the first day of school, August 31? If so, please complete an extended absence form and email to the school at copperfield@cbe.ab.ca. This ensures all students leave the school with their indoor shoes and any school work that has accumulated over the year. Anything not claimed by June 26 will be recycled.
LOST AND FOUND
The lost and found is again overflowing! Ask your student to check to see if they have anything in it! We do try to return items that have names on them, however it is always a good idea to have your child look. All lost and found left unclaimed will be donated noon June 29.
FEES AND WAIVERS
As a reminder, all fees have been posted to your student’s MyCBE account. If you could please check to make sure all outstanding fees have been paid.
No child is ever denied access to an education in The Calgary Board of Education (CBE) because of an inability to pay. If you cannot afford the fees, there are several ways to qualify for a central fee waiver.
Waiver applications for the current school year are found online through your MyCBE account and are available from the start of the school year until June 30.
