Dear Belfast Families
We had a great week of dance with our Sound Kreations dance residency! Today, students showcased their hard work by performing in front of one another at a whole school celebration. It is incredible how much the students have learned in just five days! Thank you to our amazing School Council and Parent Fundraising Society for supporting all of our residencies this year!
Follow us on Instagram!
We encourage all our families to follow our school’s Instagram account (@BelfastSchoolcbe) and visit our school website to see pictures from the week. If you do not see your child on Instagram, it may be because they do not have clearance. Please call the office if you have any questions about clearance.

School Council Fundraiser: Only one Fundraiser all Year!
We are simplifying our fundraising efforts. Instead of multiple smaller events, we are hosting one major fundraiser on the Education Matters platform. 100% of your donation goes directly to the school (3.5% for administration). A tax receipt will be issued for donations over $20.00. Please spread the word and share the link with friends and family. Your generosity will make a difference to Belfast School. Click HERE to donate.
Cold Weather & Warm Clothing
We would like to remind families that students will be going outside for recess and lunch recess every day, unless the weather is colder than –20 with the windchill. Please ensure your children are dressed to be outside. If you need support with winter clothing, please reach out to the school and we can help.
Last Call: Laundry Soap Donations
Leadership Club is collecting laundry soap and dryer sheets for the Veteran’s Food Bank. Donations will be picked up Monday morning, so if you want to donate, please ensure your child drops off donations when they arrive at school.
Reminder: Conferences - November 28 & 29
All parents are invited to book a conference with your child’s teacher. Please use MyCBE to book your conference. If you have trouble booking, please see this link or contact the office.
Reminder: Save the Date: Winter Concert December 12
All students will be performing at our Winter Concert on Thursday, December 12. We will have two shows: one at 10:15 AM and one at 6:00 PM. Due to space constraints, we ask that only immediate family come to the evening performance; grandparents and other extended family members are encouraged to come to the morning performance.
As always, please do not hesitate to reach out if you have anything you would like to share.
Have a wonderful weekend,
Meagan Lundgren
Principal
Belfast School
