GETTING STARTED:

You can start the registration process with the link below, but before you begin:

• Have your supporting documents (ex. Birth certificate) easy to access before beginning the registration process. Birth Certificates: All parents/guardians are required to present legal proof of a student’s name, citizenship and birth date when a child is registered in school. 
• If a student was born outside of Canada, official documents from that country must be presented.  As we are required by Alberta Education to have these documents for all students, you are required to provide them.
• Once you are in the SchoolEngage system, please pick the correct program and year registration form as there are multiple available.
• Once complete please ensure the scans of the Registration Form and birth certificate are bright and high resolution. Scans that are grainy or taken in low light will be refused when we upload them to our Student Information System. Click on the link below to register your child.

While some youngsters eagerly anticipate the start of school, others might feel a bit uneasy about adapting to new rules and routines. Ease this transition with these helpful tips to prepare both you and your child for a seamless entry into Kindergarten.

• Open Dialogue on Feelings: Encourage your child to express their emotions. Discuss the exciting new experiences awaiting them in Kindergarten, fostering anticipation and enthusiasm.

• Reading Together: Share stories in your child's first language. This not only enhances brain function but also improves listening skills, sparking their imagination and sense of wonder.

• The Power of Play: Embrace play as a gateway to creativity and enjoyment. Through play, your child not only has fun but also hones problem-solving, numeracy, and literacy skills.

• Nurturing Friendships: Facilitate social connections with friends and family. These interactions provide valuable opportunities for your child to develop social skills, self-esteem, and compassion.

• Community Exploration: Venture into your community—visit the public library, museums, or attend special events. These experiences contribute to expanding your child's vocabulary and communication skills.

• Nature's Classroom: Explore natural surroundings like parks, fostering a calming environment that promotes curiosity and physical well-being.

• Routine Reinforcement: Establish consistent routines to instill a sense of predictability. Such routines empower your child, fostering independence, responsibility, and confidence throughout their Kindergarten journey.
