EPS Math Family Fun Day

An exciting mathematical learning experience was recently held for our students, parents and staff! Teachers planned ten wonderful rotating math learning stations engaging both students and parents in rich activities fostering conceptual understanding! Many students expressed that they enjoyed playing fun games with their friends and parents! We can only hope that we have started a movement in our community: a realization that math is everywhere, math is fun, and playing math board games with your family is awesome!

EPS Students Pay Tribute to Canadian Fallen Soldiers

Earlier this school year, our grade 6 students researched a World War I fallen soldier under the guidance of Mr. Mepham. Once they learned more about the fallen Canadian soldier, they created a tribute in the form of a postcard and cross. Mr. Mepham, upon his trip to France this summer, placed the student tributes where the soldiers lie at Beaucourt British Cemetery.
