Hello FEO Families,
This past week we held our Remembrance Day assemblies early due to the fall break. Through our act of remembrance, we pay tribute to members of the Canadian Armed Forces and RCMP who served to defend our values and freedoms. We also honour those who continue to serve our country today.
As we enter the Fall Break, I hope this opportunity provides our staff and students a change to unplug for a few days and recharge. It will be a sprint to the winter break!
I encourage you to continue to check the FEO website calendar for upcoming events. This continues to be out main course of information for parents. You can also follow FEO on Instagram (@FE.Osborne_cbe) and X (@FEOsborne_CBE).

School Council Message
Thank you to everyone who came to our November 5th meeting! It was wonderful to have such a great turnout again.
At our meeting we discussed and committed $67,000 of our casino fund money to areas of need within FEO that were prioritized by teaching staff and administration. These areas include technology, library, science, Indigenous learning, complimentary course supplies and more for the 2024/2025 school year. These items are directly used by our kids (or for our kids) to enhance their school and learning experiences. Details can be found in our November meeting minutes which will be posted to our webpage. Our casino account already had $24,000 in additional prior commitments, and now holds $33,000 behind to budget for spending in the 2025/2026 school year. Our next casino volunteer opportunity will come between October and December 2025.
At our meeting we also welcomed Natalie Anderson into the secretary position. Thank you Natalie! We are excited to have you on board.
Finally, stay tuned for upcoming details of FEO’s student Evening Winter Dance! We hope it will be a great evening of music, food, fun, and of course, dancing!
Our next meeting is Tuesday December 3 at 6:30 PM (Meeting link for MS Teams will be sent to families the morning of the meeting). We really hope to see you there!
-Linda Josue, co-chair of FEO school council and parent advisory
