Principal Nancy Gillott has been in touch to bring us news from Riverside School. Students there are involved in a school-wide generative process that will lead to the creation of a new logo and visual identity. An Advisory Group comprised of students, staff, families, community members, and Indigenous leaders is leading the work that will result in the creation of a new visual identity for the school, which will be incorporated into all signage, symbols, and team names. You can track progress on this project on their website at https://school.cbe.ab.ca/school/riverside/get-involved/community-engagement/pages/our-visual-identity.aspx. Student artists at Riverside School have also been busy displaying their creative talents on the panels at the AHS long-term facility currently under construction south of Centre Avenue between 9A and 12th Streets. One of their panels is gracing the cover of our newsletter this month and I encourage you to visit the AHS site to see more work from these talented young artists. You can also see the work on your screen by visiting the school’s website, which is updated every Wednesday.
I encourage you to renew your BRCA memberships and attend our 2022 Annual General Meeting at the Community Hall on May 26 (details inside this issue). Our Board will be reporting on our work during the past year and on upcoming issues of interest to the community. As you all know, our neighbourhood is constantly evolving and there is no shortage of interesting issues and projects that can engage our residents and our Board. We are always looking for volunteers, so if you are interested in getting involved with a particular project or event or in standing for election to the Board on May 26, please contact the Board at [email protected].
