Educational Trips | Offsite Activities for 2024-25
Last night we were pleased to host the first parent meeting for the upcoming FEO 2025 Disneyland Band Tour. We are excited to announce other educational travel opportunities in the near future. Due to the Disneyland tour being an international trip, announcements this early are made to accommodate the extensive planning that is required.
Asian Heritage Month
May is Asian Heritage Month in Canada. It is a time to celebrate and recognize the contributions of Asian Canadians and a reminder to come together to combat anti-Asian racism and discrimination in all its forms. The month-long celebration provides an opportunity to learn about these diverse communities' history, culture and transitions.
Calgary is home to a diverse population, including many of Asian descent. F.E. Osborne School is committed to fostering an inclusive and welcoming environment for all students. One of the ways we do this at the Calgary Board of Education and FEO is by including different perspectives in schools, including Asian voices, resources, and texts. This aligns with our Education Plan’s key action to bring a system-wide implementation of strategies to advance antiracism, diversity and inclusion.
As we celebrate Asian Heritage Month, it is essential to recognize the ongoing struggles faced by Asian Canadians, including racism and discrimination. This month marks an opportunity for students and staff to learn about our shared history, celebrate our differences, and work towards creating a more inclusive and equitable society.
