Principal’s Message I would like to take this opportunity to thank the students who were involved in our talent show. It takes a lot of courage to stand up in front of your peers. A job well done. I know that students (and adults) are looking forward to wearing spring/summer clothes. A reminder that if your child brings flip-flop style shoes or sandals to school, indoor shoes will still be required. A pair of socks will be needed as well. Please adhere to our dress policy re-garding spaghetti strap and/or midriff shirts and short shorts. We understand students get hot and uncomfortable in the classroom; however they will still need to follow our school guide-

lines. Track and field will begin shortly. Students will enjoy having classes outside. Band trips are also forthcoming. Good luck to all students in their activities. Have a great month! Art Feher

Our registration process for the 2016 – 2017 school year is underway. If you know of families who are moving into the Red Wing Public School area who have school-aged children, please ask them to register at their earliest conven-ience. If you are planning on moving next school year and registering your child elsewhere, please let the office know. Also, if you have a child ready for Kindergarten, please come to the school and fill out a registration form. Your

child must be 5 by December 31, 2016. It is important to get an accurate picture of our enroll-ment for next year so we can staff the school accordingly.

Congratulations to Tobi Fontaine and Jakson Bergen as both received gold medals in the grade 7/8 mixed doubles badminton Extravaganza. As well, con-gratulations go to Syd Hobson and Alli Soyko as both received silver medals in the grade 7/8 girls doubles event. All Red Wing students are commended for their great work during our badminton season .

“Pitch In” Day Students at Red Wing will be “pitching in” to clean up the school grounds and ditches sur-rounding our school on Thursday, May 5th (weather permitting) at various times throughout the day.

“SOLE-stice Classic” – Prince Albert Regional Entry The “SOLE-stice Classic” is series of meets designed to replace the Hershey Meets. These meets are grass roots meets for young athletes to get involved in running, jumping and throwing competitions. This program is being sponsored by the Aboriginal Track and Field of Saskatchewan plus Saskatchewan Athletics. The term “SOLE-stice” comes from the idea that the “final meet” will be held near the longest day of the year. The meets are geared for younger athletes who may not get many opportunities to compete against others their age in their region or from across the province. To get involve, go the website www.solesticeclassic.com ; select the Prince Albert regional meet. The Prince Albert Meet is being held on Monday, May 30th. Complete the computer online entry process as shown below. The best part is that no entry fees are charged to participate. The “Top 3” athletes from each regional meet can advance to the “SOLE-stice Classic –

Provincial Finals” in Saskatoon on Sat. June 18th. The emphasis of the meets is to have fun while getting young athletes to be active through competition. WHO CAN PARTICIPATE? Boys and girls between ages 7 to 13. Age group classifications are determined by the participant’s Year of Birth . Athletes can possibly qualify in a maximum of four events; (does not include the relay). Meteors - Born 2007/08 Comets - Born 2005/06 Stars - Born 2003/04
