· Halloween and All Saints Day

All students are invited to wear their costumes to school tomorrow. Just a reminder no scary/gory/weapons/evil costumes allowed. The collection will be $1 to support the Catholic Charities.

We will be celebrating our Parish’s feast day on Friday, October 30. Students are encouraged to dress in their favorite saint costume, or they can come dressed in their school uniform.

· Student Illnesses/Absences

One reminder that Fraser Health has asked us to convey to our community, is to stay home when a person is unwell. If your child is ill, he/she should stay home until the symptoms have subsided or are given the ok by a doctor.

Please fill out an absentee form if your child is away from school, located on our school website. The form will automatically be emailed to the office. All schools undergo an attendance audit in the spring. All absences must be accounted for.

· School Uniform

Students should be wearing their winter uniforms as of Monday. No skorts or shorts.

· Archdiocese of Vancouver

Dear Families, Because you have attended some of our previous parenting workshops, we wanted to draw your attention to the following events that may be of interest to you:


Start Talking to Your Kids About Sex: A Practical Guide for Catholics Friday October 30th, 2026 | 7:00-8:30 pm
At Corpus Christi Parish How can parents and other trusted adults talk about sexuality with children and teens in developmentally appropriate ways while remaining faithful to Catholic teaching?




Neufeld Parenting Workshops

Making Sense of Anxiety, A Video Course & Discussion facilitated by Kevin Bredeman Tuesday, November 3, 2026 to Tuesday, November 24, 2026
7:00pm to 9:00pm | Via Zoom The escalating level of anxiety in our children begs for an explanation as well as a solution. Dr. Gordon Neufeld sheds light on this age-old problem, paving the way for natural interventions that can actually get to the root causes as opposed to just managing symptoms. Although the focus is on children, this enlightening material will benefit anyone suffering from anxiety.

Blessings of peace,

Life, Marriage and Family team
