As the mornings get darker this winter, we're inviting our Abbotsford community to help make the journey to school a little brighter.

On November 8, coinciding with Diwali, the Festival of Lights, we're launching our Brighten the Path to School campaign. We're encouraging residents and businesses to turn on their existing outdoor lights during the morning school commute to bring a little extra light and warmth to neighbourhoods across Abbotsford.

Why does screen time matter?

Children and families are increasingly spending time on screens such as TVs, computers, tablets, smartphones and gaming devices. Too much screen time can take away from activities that are essential for healthy development, like spending time with family and friends, playing outdoors and getting a good night’s sleep.

Dear Swift Families,

Thank you for coming in for Parent Teacher Interviews – we appreciate the time you take to share information about your children with us!

Supervision Reminders

A gentle reminder that supervision before school begins at 8:15. Please do not drop off or send your kids to school with an arrival before that time! Supervision after school ends at 2:40.

Halloween

Congratulations to our September Star Students!! Their certificates are on the board in the hall. 

Star Student certificates are hung on the board in the hallway for the month AFTER they are selected. Then we have a Star Student Celebration the First Tuesday of the month following (so September Star students have their certificates up all thru October and get their celebration the 1st Tuesday in November, etc.). ALL students who attend Swift will have their certificate on the wall at some time during the year. We post the first names and divisions only on the website.

Dear Swift Families,

Wishing all our families a wonderful Thanksgiving – we hope you enjoy the long weekend and fill it with family memories.

Everyone should take these steps to protect themselves and limit the spread of respiratory illnesses: 

Dear Swift Families,
