Great Turnout to Learning Conferences 

It’s always a pleasure to see our OHS families come out for learning conferences! Thanks to everyone who participated, whether in-person or online. Conferences are an important part of our reporting and communication process, and a great way to highlight strengths and set goals before the January report cards. Special thanks to our School Council and Parents Association for providing a wonderful for the teachers. Much appreciated! 

** Please note: Ms. Thorpe GR3: Parent Teacher Conferences scheduling is currently open and conferences will be held on December 4, 5, 6 

CBC Music Class Challenge Videos 

Students in Kindergarten to Grade 6 have worked hard to create a music video entry for the CBC Music Class Challenge once again! Earlier this month, we recorded a video that featured the whole school together performing "You Can Be Anything" by Jeremy and Jazzy. It was such an exciting project for all of us to learn, rehearse and film our version as a choir of 500 voices and many instruments!

Our video is now uploaded to the official CBC Music Class YouTube Channel! You can check it out here:

Wonderful job everyone!

Attendance:

If your child (in grade 4, 5, 6) cannot attend the afternoon or evening concerts, please email Ms. Tran as soon as you can. Lmtran@cbe.ab.ca. Every student is assigned a hand bell part, and if they are absent, we will need to have their part covered. Thank you!
