WELCOME TO SUNNYSIDE

We acknowledge that we live, work and play on the traditional territories of the Blackfoot Confederacy (Siksika, Kainai, Piikani), the Tsuut’ina, the Îyâxe Nakoda Nations, the Métis Nation (Region 3), and all people who make their homes in the Treaty 7 region of Southern Alberta.

ABOUT SCHOOL COUNCIL

YOU MAY HAVE HEARD...AT SUNNYSIDE SCHOOL, EVERYONE IS COOL.

The unforgettable lyrics of our school song say it all: at Sunnyside school, everyone is cool, and people are kind and friendly.  

​

The Sunnyside School Council is a group of kind, friendly, and cool folk who collaborate with the school to support and enhance our children's learning and promote Sunnyside school’s core values:

 

We are connected to each other; we are connected to the land; we are connected to our community.  

​

We'd love to see you at one of our next council meetings.

WHAT COUNCIL DOES 

COUNCIL DOES MORE THAN YOU MIGHT THINK

Virtually all of our school's extra-curricular activities, including swimming classes, school dances and yoga, are organized and funded by the Sunnyside School Council.

​

We also initiate, manage and support several in-school programs and infrastructure projects, such as the Grandparents Read program and the Outdoor Learning Circle seen in the photo below this text. 

​

We even made the website you are navigating right now!
