A huge CONGRATULATIONS to our Senior Girls Basketball team for breaking our 5-year drought and winning 5th place in the Provincial championship!

Thanks to the parents, siblings, staff, and classmates who all came out to cheer on the team! It felt like the "good ole days". #immacfamily #immacexcellence

Thank you to everyone who has brought in donations for the Lenten Food Drive. Next week will be our final week of collection before Spring Break. With the costs of food and gas rising, the less fortunate are bound to feel more pressure to make ends meet. If we all pitch in a little bit, it will make a big difference! 10 B – Please note that we have been asked to donate laundry soap and/or liquid hand soap. Thank you! |

If you answered yes to these questions, you could be just the family we’re looking for!
We are building our list of homestay families for the 2022-23 school year! We expect to have students from Latin America, Asia, and Europe. We had some amazing new families join us last year and we hope to add some more next year.

It is always great when Immac alumni reach out to us and share the great things they are doing in our community. This week we had two.
First, we got a note from Isabella Harmel, who wanted to let us know about an opportunity available to all our students to get involved in. Isabella is part of a group starting the Kelowna Municipal Youth Service Council, an initiative aimed at getting high school-aged students involved in service in their community.
It entails one online meeting and one in-person service project per month. Meetings will consist of education on service projects and community issues, connecting youth in their communities, and planning service projects and the projects will be planned by the members.
Second, we heard from Immac 2019 grad, Isaac Hopegood. Isaac has been doing some volunteering at KGH in the Children’s ward and wanted to let us know about an upcoming toy drive on March 12th at Sweetnams Nik Naks in Kelowna. The aim is to raise $3,000 for new toys and electronics for the children’s ward at the Kelowna General Hospital since the old ones were thrown out due to COVID contamination.

Please CALL the office at
250-762-2730
and leave a recorded message for Ms. Despins if your child will be absent or late.
It is very important that every student is accounted for when marked away. This will save Ms. Despins time when recording attendance.
