School Council Corner

Dear Varsity Acres School Community,

We would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to all the Parent Volunteers who helped make this year’s Fall Welcome such a great success. Your time, energy, and enthusiasm truly make these events special for our students, and we’re so grateful for your continued support.

A big thank you as well to VASPFS (Parent Fundraising Society) for always championing the fun and engaging activities we host for the kids. Your support helps bring our school community together in the best way.

We’re also incredibly appreciative of our Principals, Teachers, and Admin Staff, thank you for going above and beyond to support these events for our students and their families. Your dedication never goes unnoticed!

And of course, a special shout-out to our community sponsors:

  • Superstore Bowness
  • COBBS Bread Crowfoot

Your generous donations truly help make our events a little sweeter—literally and figuratively!

I’d especially like to recognize COBBS Bread Crowfoot, a long-time supporter of Varsity Acres School. Their continued contributions to our Fall Welcome year after year mean so much to us. It’s inspiring to see a local business give so consistently and generously, helping to strengthen our community spirit.

If you're in the area, be sure to stop by COBBS Bread Crowfoot for a delicious treat—they never disappoint!

With heartfelt thanks,

Varsity Acres School Parent Association
