School Walkathon 2021

This year our School Walkathon will be held on Friday, October 8. Each year students from Kindergarten to Grade 7 walk to raise money in support of our school. This is our FIRST BIG fundraising opportunity since the announcement of the loan guarantee from the Archdiocese and the commencement of our development permit application with the City of Vancouver. All funds raised from this year’s Walkathon will be put towards this new school building project.

Check out the ONLINE CAMPAIGN HERE and then click on your students’ class to donate. Thank you!

New School Website

It is with great joy and excitement that we launch this new school website!
 
This new website is the fruit of months of hard work of a few parents and teachers of our school. It is my hope that this website will give you an idea of how vibrant and caring the community of St. Francis of Assisi is.
 
I would like to express my sincere thanks to our parents: Mrs. Lisa Edward, our website designer (studiochartreuse), and Mr. Luca Sgaetti, who took care of the photography and videos. I would also like to thank Mrs. Mackay, Mrs. Sulmona, and Miss Hewitt for their invaluable support.
