Hi Salmo parents, guardians, aunts, uncles, grandmothers, grandfathers and friends!

I wish you all happy holidays filled with relaxation, family time, rest, and fun.

The Salmo Elementary Winter concert and sing along was a great success! After several years of hosting digital events, it was so wonderful to have an in-person concert. With overwhelming outpouring of support from parents, grandparents and the community, we were able to fill our gym and it was standing room only! 

The Gr. 3/4 class at Salmo Elementary are great gift givers! During the holidays they are always thinking of others. It is tradition for them to make cards and gifts for the local senior centre so that cheer and friendship can be shared at this time of year. Students worked hard for several weeks on their crafts. They made 130 original cards, and an equal amount of varied types of ornaments.

Winter is officially here at Salmo Elementary! Students are enjoying all the benefits and fun of outdoor play. Students can be often seen sledding, digging and building out in the playground. There have been snowmen, forts and new elements of play in our yard.

The monthly theme from the Seven Sacred teachings has been on humility. In assemblies and through classroom activities, students have been learning the meaning of humility, and what it means to think of other before themselves. 

Congratulations to the Salmo Girls Volleyball team! 

On November 28, after weeks of practicing, they went up against Trafalgar Grade 6 Girls volleyball team. Their skills were put to the test! After a losing a couple of games, they continued to work hard, persevere, and come together as a team and won the last game! 

Great work girls! What a great accomplishment!

On November 24, Salmo Elementary students concluded their month of learning about courage with a multi-age activity.

Students and staff at Salmo Elementary School recognized Remembrance Day on Thursday Nov. 10 with an assembly and an art walk. 

All classes learned about the importance of Remembrance Day, and the meaning it has to us as Canadians. Students then created various pieces of art which was displayed throughout the gym during the assembly.
