Our school is fundraising with Mabel’s Labels! If you’re not familiar with Mabel’s Labels, they make personalized, durable, waterproof labels. They are great for everything from shoes, to clothing tags, water bottles and backpacks! You can customize them with your name and a design, and they are dishwasher, laundry and microwave safe. Mabel’s Labels also offers clothing stamps and silicone bands for water bottles! This is a great way to ensure your items don’t end up in the lost & found or mixed up. To support our fundraiser visit campaigns.mabelslabels.com and select Chinook Park School Council (Calgary). You can pick out whatever labels or products you want, and it will ship for free directly to your house! Thank you for supporting us! 😊
One of the most important ways parents/guardians and community members can make a meaningful difference for students is by participating on the school council. Under the Education Act, a school council is a collective association designed to advise the principal and the CBE Board of Trustees on matters related to the school. School councils have legislated advisory and decision-making authority defined within the Education Act and the School Councils Regulation. They are different from Parent Societies & Associations, whose main function is to raise funds for the school. You can find more details in the CBE School Council Handbook.
