Hello Bridlewood Parents/Guardians 

Please read on for important reminders and updates. 

Bridlewood Month of Heart 

During the next month our school community will pay special attention to the Heart to Belong domain as identified in the CBE Indigenous Education Holistic Lifelong Learning Framework. This focus will see students and staff engaged in reflections, lessons, discussions, and activities intended to develop and nurture important capacities for social awareness including: 

  • Taking others’ perspectives 
  • Recognizing strengths in others 
  • Demonstrating empathy and compassion 
  • Showing concern for the feelings of others 
  • Understanding and expressing gratitude 

Check out this video from PBS Learning Media for more information. 

Tuesday February 4 -The Bridlewood School Fundraising Society will host snack sales at the school.  Funds raised from the snack sale will be directed toward supporting Bridlewood families affected by the recent condo fire.  All snacks are $1, with a limit of 5 snacks/student.
