School Community Council Dr. Seuss Reading Initiative
Palliser Heights Staff and School Community Council members are excited to announce our Dr. Seuss reading challenge which will begin January 27 in celebration of Family Literacy Day and will run until mid-May.
As you may already know, reading is an important initiative within Prairie South School Division and Palliser Heights wants to help motivate kids to read. To that effect, staff members and our SCC have created a Dr. Seuss themed reading challenge. With Dr. Seuss character visits, Dr. Seuss themed prizes and a final prize for three classes to attend the matinee performance of Rhubarb Jr.’s Seussical in June, we hoped to motivate kids to read…and read.

Education Week Guest Speaker
Palliser Heights staff and students were excited to welcome Logan to our school to share his story and successes at our education week assembly. Logan is an 11 year old from White City, Saskatchewan who recently hit local, provincial and national news by playing Regina Minor Football in his wheelchair. He shared his story about all of the things he CAN do and how many friends and family have helped him along the way. It was a great story about inclusion and how we can all make sure to do our part to make everyone feel included at school and in our communities. After the assembly, Logan joined us at recess and got a chance to meet many of our students.
