We are so excited to kick off the 2026/2027 school year tomorrow for students in Grades 1-7. School starts at 8:55 until 11:00 am. We are hosting a family bbq with Galgapothla Family Services Society where every student will receive a backpack. We hope our families can join us as we reconnect, welcome everyone back, and celebrate the beginning of another great year together.
Please note that the school will be closed for a funeral service this Friday. We appreciate everyone’s understanding as we give our community the time and space to come together and support the family.
We are looking forward to welcoming everyone back and starting another great school year together. ❤️Gilakas'la.
