Stephen’s Backpacks Royal Oak Students are supporting Stephen’s Backpacks this holiday season. Stephen’s Backpacks is an organization that was started in Airdrie by a young boy who thought it wasn’t fair that he received so much for Christmas when other children didn’t even have a bed to sleep in. The backpacks this year are for children who range in age from infant to grade 3.

We will begin collecting items in the gathering space beginning on Monday, November 13th and will be accepting donations until Wednesday, December 6th. Link to Stephen’s Back...

Zoo Field Trip Monday June 11 We have our final field trip of the year planned for next Monday, June 11 . We will be travelling by chartered bus to the Calgary Zoo.
