Sports Day

Beach Party at Westgate!

Our annual sports day this year will take place on Thursday, June 25th, 2015 for Kindergarten to Grade Four classes. Our theme this year will be a “Beach Party”. The students are asked to wear comfortable clothing to school on June 25th as they will be partaking in many sports related activities. They can wear sunglasses, hats, flip-flops and other beach themed items. There are a few activities involving water, however, the students will NOT be getting wet, so we ask that they not wear their bathing suits. We will need volunteers to help set up, run and take down the stations from 8:15 - 11:15 a.m. Please contact your child’s teacher if you have a current police clearance and are able to help out.

Thank you,
Sports Day Committee

Bike to School Day

Bike to School Day was a huge success!

Tuesday was Bike To School Day at Westgate! We had approximately 215 riders overall at Westgate (maybe even 225 or more), including 101 Westgate students who were registered. Pretty amazing results for a first year effort!

A huge thank you to all of the parent volunteers for your help at the various "stops" for bike-to-school day. Thank you for leading the groups along the route, running the schedule like a Swiss train and helping to ensure a safe and fun ride. A special thank you to Sra Arantxa, Srta Usoa, Susannah Thomsen and Ketty Hoyem for their work organizing the event!
