Chaparral has school spirit - yes we do!


We know that a large part of the elementary school experience is having opportunities to connect with the surrounding community, as well as with each other. These days can be informative, teach empathy, help students learn about each other and the world, build school culture and community, and more.


Throughout the school year, we may acknowledge events such as:

  • Terry Fox Marathon of Hope - School Run
  • Fall Eqiunox
  • Orange Shirt Day - Truth and Reconciliation
  • Halloween
  • Remembrance Day
  • Treaty 7 Day
  • Winter Solstice
  • Rock Your Socks - Down Syndrome Day
  • Random Acts of Kindness
  • Lunar New Year
  • Pink Shirt Day
  • Valentine's Day
  • St. Patrick's Day (Green Day)
  • Earth Day
  • Hats on for Mental Health
  • Spring Solstice
  • Activity Day
  • Grade 6 Farewell


We also will have spirit days that are chosen by students themselves! These days will be on our Fun Lunch Days (unless otherwise noted). Students have may wonderful ideas including:


  • Dress like your favourite book character
  • Wacky hair day
  • Anything but a backpack day
  • Backwards day
  • Pajama day
  • Twins day
  • Caroling
