Bonjour BP families.
We are excited and looking forward to our final band concert/arts night June 6 from 6:30-8 PM. Bonus points if audience members show up in their favorite band t-shirt! Doors open at 6:30 PM and the concert starts at 7:00 PM. We look forward to welcoming the wider BP community to this celebration of student art and music.
June – A Time for Celebration and Recognition
June is National Indigenous History Month in Canada. In order to learn how Indigenous ways of being, belonging, doing and knowing can support our well-being, the CBE Indigenous Education Team invites CBE staff, families, and community members to participate in a 4-week June Wellness Challenge. This wellness challenge aims to (re)align our spirit, heart, body, and mind to enhance our well-being and to build intercultural understanding. To take part in the 4-week Wellness Challenge independently or with families, friends, or community members: June Wellness Challenge
