WEEKLY NEWS
Another great week at Bellevue! We were happy to be able to get outside
and go sledding, skating and play in the snow. What a difference a week
makes with the weather. We want to thank the Beaumont Society for the
Arts for sponsoring a presentation of Alberta Opera’s Sleeping Beauty.
Kindergarten also celebrated Chinese New Year this week. Of course,
there are many other great things happening at our school.
Stay up to date on our facebook site, as well.
LITERACY NIGHT
What a great time we had at Literacy Night! Here are a few pictures from
the night. Thank you to Ruby Seinen and all the parent organizers for putting
on this event. This small group of parents does a tremendous amount of work
for our school and we truly appreciate it! We would also like to thank those who
were able to come out and fun! We will continue to have events for families throughout the year. We have a dance planned, another movie night, and more!

PARENT DRIVE THRU
Student, staff and parent safety outside at drop off and pick up time is our number
one priority every day.
There is a detailed graphic below for all parents to refer to, as we want our students and parents to have a positive experience coming to and from school. We are so fortunate to have plenty of parking between the street and the community centre parking lot, that arrival and dismissal should be a pleasant experience for everyone.
Just a reminder that the drive thru is for quick pick ups/drop offs only.
Please remain in your vehicle and pull up to pick up your child. Please do not stop
in the drive thru as it creates a back up in the line, which causes problems for the
street traffic. Students should be picked up in the drive thru area and not along
the road. Cars should not be parked or stopped in the bus zones, as it creates
unsafe situations for other cars, buses and pedestrians. If the drive thru is
backed up, parents need to drive around the block and try again or go and
park the car in the community centre.
