May 16: Inferno Weekly Update

Here is our weekly update of events and information for Greystone Centennial Middle School.

May Long Weekend - No School Friday & Monday

The May Long Weekend is upon us. That means that this Friday (May 20th) is a PD Day and Monday (May 23rd) is the holiday. There is no school for students these days.

A reminder that originally our School Calendar showed Thursday, May 19th as a PD Day. This was changed in September, as we recognized the National Day of Truth and Reconciliation. There is school on Thursday, May 19th.

School Council & FOGS Meeting/AGM

We need you! Without our families taking positions on our School Council Executive, we are at risk of losing our council and fundraising society. Please consider joining us at our next meeting on Tuesday, May 17th either online or in person at 6:30 pm. The agendas and minutes for the meeting can be found on the School Council section of our website.

For those joining online:

Track Meet - Thank You

A big thank you on behalf of the school and School Council/FOGS to everyone who made our Track Meet and Concession a huge success.

We were helped out by some local businesses. M&M Foods, Sandyview Farms, and Sobeys (Spruce Grove) all gave the school discounts. If you have the chance, please support these businesses. 

If you have the opportunity, please check out the gallery of pictures on the "Athletics Page" of our website.

Off-site at Lunch Recess

Greystone has a closed campus at lunch recess. The only exception is our Grade 9 students who are able to go to the 7-11, with parental permission, at lunchtime. All other students are expected to stay at school during breaks, unless they have permission to go to their own home for lunch, or are signed out by a parent.

Write-On Stationery ordering is now open until July 15. If the school shipping option is chosen, orders will arrive the week of Aug 22 (with pick up tentatively Aug 24/25 from 9-2 each day). All orders are placed either online or by calling Write On directly.
