Diwali Celebrations Across #AbbySchools

Across the Abbotsford School District, vibrant celebrations were underway last week to embrace the spirit of Diwali, a significant festival in South Asian cultures that symbolizes the triumph of light over darkness and good over evil.

This year, students and staff took the opportunity to learn more about the cultural importance of this festival and celebrate the diversity of our schools.

English Grade 5 Skating Field Trip

The English Grade 5's in Divisions 1, 2 and 3 thoroughly enjoyed their skating experience at ARC on Wednesday November 15th. Students had fun playing hockey, chasing their friends, and scooting around on seals. Even Mrs. Fetterly, Mrs. Bonk, and Mrs. Phillips got into the fun!

A huge thank you to all the volunteers who accompanied us and helped lace up skates and encourage kids - you were amazing! After more than two hours of skating, the kids even go to enjoy a well-deserved treat back at the school. What a great day!
