 Student Vote Results 2025

After time spent learning about the democratic process, researching political parties, and sharing their knowledge with peers, students in Grades 3–6 cast their ballots on Monday at our very own polling station.

 Here’s how the votes were distributed: 

  • Conservatives: 33.7%
  • Liberals: 28.6%
  • NDP: 18.4%
  • Green Party: 11.2%

 We’re incredibly proud of all the students who participated—not just for voting, but for taking the time to understand the issues, ask thoughtful questions, and engage in meaningful conversations. Thank you for bringing such energy, curiosity, and leadership to this experience.

 Through our partnership with Student Vote Canada, our students are learning that democracy isn’t just about casting a ballot—it’s about being informed, respectful, and involved.

 Free Medical-Grade Disposable Face Masks Available

We have a large supply of unused 50 packs of masks remaining from our previous COVID protocols, and we’d love to see them put to good use. If you or someone you know could benefit from a box, please feel free to call the school at 403-777-6150.

 We have both larger and smaller sizes available. All masks are made in Canada and offer three-layer protection. Let us know if you'd like to pick some up!

 Have a wonderful weekend!
