Updates from the Principal

It’s hard to believe winter is just around the corner, and our class and community programs are up and running. This fall was filled with many experiences across our school, classrooms, and community—from a very well-attended barbecue, field trips, sports events, parent conferences, and pumpkin patch visits. I’m grateful to the Edmonds school and broader community for coming together to create such a vibrant, inclusive environment for learning. There’s always something happening at Edmonds Community School! Continue reading the: November December Newsletter

Families are reminded that electric scooters are not permitted for use on public roads in Burnaby, as the city is not part of BC’s electric kick scooter pilot project. This means students should not ride or store e-scooters at school. In communities that are part of the pilot, riders must be at least 16 years old, but Burnaby currently has no designated areas for e-scooter use.

For full details, please read the letter Important Information Regarding EScooters and visit the ICBC and Government of BC websites for more information on e-scooter rules and safety.

Welcome back! I hope the summer months offered you time to rest, reconnect, and enjoy meaningful moments with loved ones. As we step into a new school year, I’m filled with excitement and gratitude to be part of such a vibrant, caring, and  diverse community. For our families and staff, whether you’re returning or joining us for the first time, we are excited to welcome you to the community. We have a number of new staff as we as staff members returning from leave. We are looking forward to another school year at Edmonds Community School.
