News & Announcements

On June 7, the Minister of Education Adriana LaGrange and West Yellowhead MLA Martin Long visited our Vanier Community Catholic School in Edson. Time was spent visiting classrooms and joining in with the fun and learning of students. The Trustees of Living Waters had the opportunity to meet with the Minister following the tour.

Living Waters believes in teacher capacity building and was fortunate enough to be able to send staff to VTRA (Violent Threat Risk Assessment) training.

Take pride in how far you’ve come. Have faith in how far you can go!

Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or discouraged. For the Lord your God is with you wherever you go. Joshua 1:9

The Living Waters GrACE committee met on May 30th to create their 2022/2023 plans for sharing and showcasing all the great things that are happening in our Catholic Schools in Edson, Whitecourt, and Slave Lake. GrACE stands for Grateful Advocates for Catholic Education and the committee looks forward to taking the time to unite, engage, educate and communicate with all stakeholders over the course of the next year.

The Living Waters Board of Trustees sends warmest congratulations to the Holy Redeemer Graduating Class of 2022.

May God grant you the desires of your heart and make all your plans succeed!

I can do all things in Christ who strengthens me. Philippians 4:13

Covid has allowed us to have a greater appreciation for the ability to come together as a faith community. Mass in the parish in Whitecourt was a welcome return to normal.

In our schools today: In our elementary schools we will honor a different class - each class would “adopt” another class and do something(s) to honor them, such as cards, crafts, treats, letters (faith based), etc.

In our Jr/Sr high schools, we will do an in-class celebration.

We are all called to model our faith. Professional Development is a key component of this. Marked by God is a conference offered by the Catholic Council of School Superintendents. After a forced break from Covid, the entire Religious Education Team will attend the conference this October.

In our schools today: We will all wear blue for Catholic Education Day and take a school picture. Our students will also write a letter or thank-you card to a parent/guardian or significant adult for allowing them to attend a Catholic School.
