Happy Beginning of Advent!!! I hope at this busy time of the year, you will take time to celebrate the advent season: “The coming of our Saviour Jesus Christ!”
Santa Claus Parade Friday, December 6 is the annual High River Santa Claus Parade that takes place in downtown High River. Once again, the Brant Christian School House float will be in the parade with a group of our younger students riding in the float and some older students walking with the float along the parade route. The parade will begin at 6:30 pm, so come out and enjoy the festivities!
Skating at Brant Our good friends at Vulcan County have blessed us with an abundance of water for our ice rink this past week. Now, we wait for the water to freeze in hopes that we can start skating soon in both PE classes and at lunch recess. We are asking students to bring skates and a helmet and clothes that are warm enough for a 45 minute PE class on our outdoor rink. If you have grown out of your skates, could you please be generous in carrying on the Brant tradition of donating your skates and helmets that no longer fit to our PE department.
Brant Christmas Production We are excited to announce this year's Christmas production, "Away in a Mango"! Join the passengers and crew of the SS Mango as their shopping excursion turns perilous after a sudden storm leaves them stranded on a deserted island! Will they be found in time for the ship’s big Christmas Concert? Come and find out!
