May 8^th Update 

Thank you to all of the families who attended our LBS Springs Together event. We enjoyed the musical performances curated by Mrs. Kawchuk and the family activities throughout the school. Thank you for your support. 

Last week marked National Teacher Appreciation week. We are so grateful for the exceptional teaching staff that we have at Lake Bonavista School.  

Class Lists 2026-2027 

The organization of class lists is a complicated process involving many factors that we consider to create balanced class lists. We do not accept requests for specific teachers or friend groups. Teachers are keenly aware of good working relationships and will always seek to ensure students have positive relationships in their new classrooms. If you have a request, you can outline the qualities of a teacher that you will feel will be a fit for your child. Please know that we will consider this information in planning but not guarantee the request will be granted. Our teachers work hard to make the best decisions for each learners. Thank you for trusting their professionalism.

Sweet Treats Needed for Family Dance 

We’re looking for donations of all kinds of treats, from cakes to cupcakes, cookies, and beyond for our annual cake walk! Whether homemade or store-bought, your goodies will have our little dancers and their families grinning ear-to-ear. Donations of any size are welcome, and if you can list the ingredients (especially for common allergens), it’s icing on the cake! Gluten-free, dairy-free, or vegan options are always a hit and especially appreciated by families with dietary restrictions.
