What an incredible Fun Fair this year!

A huge thank you to all the parents, families, and volunteers who helped in the days, weeks, and months leading up to the biggest event of our school year. None of this would have happened without your time, hard work, and support.

A special thank you to Kayla Hughes for the countless hours spent planning and organizing this entire event, and to all of our PAC members for everything you do behind the scenes to support our school community.

We’d also like to thank all of our amazing sponsors who helped bring this event together!

Inflatables sponsored by: TIDE Soccer, Son Solar Electrical, and The Dog House.

Concession support from: Thrifty Foods, Country Grocer, Real Canadian Superstore, and Cowichan Valley Farms.

We are also incredibly grateful for the very generous donations from our local businesses, school families, and community members for our raffles and silent auction. The amount of support shown was truly amazing and helped make this event even more special for everyone involved. We are so thankful to be part of such a supportive and caring community.

Winners of the cake decorating contest and pizza party will be announced Monday, May 25th!

Let the planning for 2027 begin! Thank you again for all the continued support.

If anyone has any photos please feel free to post in the comments, we would love to see them!

— Alex Aitken PAC

Each year, the elementary schools in our district take turns hosting the District Track & Field Meet at Chesterfield Sportsplex — and this year it’s Alex Aitken’s turn!!
This is such a fun and exciting event for our students, and we are looking for parent volunteers to help make the day a success. We need help with things like setup/takedown, handing out ribbons, running stations, and more.

If you are able to help, please comment below, contact Heather at the office, or reach out to Mrs. Caljouw or Mrs. Bouma.
Thank you for supporting our school and athletes! 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️🥇🥈🥉
