It's Mother’s Day so very special greetings to all of the wonderful folks who support our young learners as they traverse the paths of life.  

Every child needs a family as an essential foundation of unconditional love, security, and belonging.  It is where children learn crucial values, develop social skills, and build the confidence necessary to navigate the world.  The consistent support and presence of family members shape a child's emotional well-being and provide the vital anchor they need to thrive in all aspects of their schooling and life.  Thank you all for making a positive difference in the life of a child and Happy Mothers Day!

We hope that you are enjoying the lovely weather this weekend.  It is a welcome change from the cold and snow.  Monday, May 4th, 2026, is Day 5 on the Instructional Schedule.

Be on the lookout this week for the launch of our AHE Spring Fling 50/50 Lottery in support of Corporal Jamie Brendan Murphy Community Park.  All funds raised through this initiative will be used to upgrade and improve this popular public play park and memorial walk here at All Hallows Elementary School.

We are thrilled to announce a Books for Bikes initiative at All Hallows Elementary!  This program is sponsored by Lodge McLeod and is designed to inspire a love of reading in our K-6 students while giving them a chance to win some incredible prizes.  It will run for the next few weeks with  prizes awarded before the last day of class in June.

Participating is easy and fun!  For every book your child finishes, they can receive a ballot from their classroom teacher.  The more books they read, the more chances they have to enter the prize draw.  At the end of the initiative, we will be holding two grand prize draws for a brand-new bike and matching helmet: One draw for Primary (K-3) students and another draw for Elementary (4-6) students.

Parents with children in Grade 4 are reminded that students in Ms. King’s and Ms. Badcock's classes are participating in the PIRLS international assessment on Tuesday, May 5th, 2026.  This study is carried out under the auspices of the International Association for the Evaluation of Educational Achievement (IEA), a consortium of research institutions in 60 countries, and coordinated in Canada by the Council of Ministers of Education (CMEC).  Additional information about PIRLS can be found on the Council of Ministers of Education website.
