Dear Sunnyside School Community 

It was so lovely to see many of you at the Neighbour Day Parade today! We were lucky to have the perfect weather—just the right balance of sunshine without the heat or rain. What a great way to celebrate our community! 

As we head into the final week of school before summer break, we have several events and closing activities planned to celebrate a great year. Monday will be our final session with Soccer John—students have learned so much and looked forward to each of their lessons. A heartfelt thank you to the parent who helped make this opportunity possible! 

Whole School Picture – Tuesday at 9:00am 

Our annual whole-school photo will take place on Tuesday at 9:00 a.m. so we can capture everyone looking their best before the day gets too busy (or too disheveled!). 

Yellow School Bus 

There may still be space available for additional student riders on the 2025–26 Sunnyside School bus. 

Yellow school bus transportation is available to students who meet all of the following criteria: 

  • Attend their designated school

  • Approval is subject to change; if routes are adjusted or qualified students are added and the bus becomes full, conditional riders may be removed to make space 

If you're interested and need support beyond the MyCBE app, you can contact the Transportation Team at 403-817-7433or transportation@cbe.ab.ca, Monday to Friday between 9:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m.
