As we prepare for the Christmas break, our CKES community came together for a joyful Christmas carol sing-along in the gym. Students filled the space with music, laughter, and holiday spirit as we celebrated the season together.

We would like to wish all of our families a very Merry Christmas and a joyful holiday season. May your break be filled with rest, warmth, and special moments with loved ones. We look forward to welcoming everyone back in the new year!

Classes 6A and 2B teamed up for a fun paper chain ADST challenge during their buddy time. Working together, students were challenged to create the longest paper chain using only two pieces of paper and one piece of tape.
The room was full of problem-solving, creativity, and teamwork. It was exciting to see older and younger students learning from one another while putting their design thinking skills to the test!

Grade 1A hit the trails on December 2nd for their very first cross-country skiing session, and their excitement was contagious!

With fresh snow from the day before and a mild -2 degrees, conditions couldn't have been better. They have 2 more sessions before they conclude the Ski S'Cool program...fingers crossed for the weather to continue to cooperate so they can get back on the trails soon!

An Advent Tradition

12/2/2025

Today we gathered to celebrate Advent through our special tradition of Las Posadas. During this celebration, students recreated the journey of Mary and Joseph, moving from classroom to classroom as they searched for a place to stay. At each stop, classes welcomed them with an Advent promise, a simple commitment to kindness, patience, generosity, or peace during this sacred season.

The procession helped students experience the story in a meaningful and active way, reminding us all of the importance of hospitality and caring for others. It was beautiful to see how thoughtfully each class participated and how our school came together in prayer and community.

We look forward to continuing this tradition again next week as we prepare our hearts for Christmas. Thank you to our staff and students for helping keep this Advent tradition strong and full of joy.
