Dear Families,

Enjoy the Victoria Day Long Weekend!

Swimming

We would like to take a moment to thank all parents who have already signed up to volunteer for swimming lessons. We have had several parents sign up, however we are still in need of more volunteers for the boys and girls change rooms. We would appreciate if parents could volunteer for multiple classes or days, and if you are available to help other classes, we need the support. Please see the SchoolMessenger message that was sent out on Wednesday, May 14.

Reminder: the volunteer police clearance must be completed.

If you can volunteer, please use our quick and easy Microsoft Form.

As well, you can email Mr. Southworth with the dates and times you can volunteer, and he can help register you as well: cnsouthworth@cbe.ab.ca

We appreciate your support of the Phys-Ed program at Richmond School.
