The school choir at St. Paul the Apostle School entertained parents, families and classmates with a Christmas musical entitled”Once Upon a Christmas.” The choir is led by Ms. Shewchuk and Ms. Dahlvik and made up of about 30 students from grades one to three. They have sung at school prayer services and for the Coniston Seniors Club. This was their first musical. Featured in the photo is Leah Wissler who sang the role of Stellar the Bright Shining Star.
St. Pauls Parent Engagement Night a Huge Success
Studies show that parent engagement is important to the learning process. On the evening of December 9th, about one hundred students and parents filled the school gym for “popcorn and a movie night”. The evening was geared to parents and kindergarten to grade four students.
It was also an opportunity for parents to get comfortable with the school surroundings and enjoy an evening of entertainment with their kids — as well as other parents and kids.
The event was so well received that the School Council is already making plans for the next parent engagement night.
