Friday, our Downie Dolphins had a fantastic time dressing up for Career Day! 👩‍🚒👨‍⚕️👩‍🍳👮‍♂️👨‍🔬

From future doctors and teachers to firefighters, veterinarians, athletes, chefs, and more, our students showed off their creativity while dreaming about the exciting careers that could be in their future. It was wonderful to see so many enthusiastic Dolphins sharing their ambitions and school spirit.

A big thank you to everyone who participated and helped make Career Day such a fun and inspiring experience! 💙🐬

Bonjour from our Grade 1/2 artists! 🇫🇷🎨 We celebrated a year of learning about famous artists with a full Art Day in our Paris-themed classroom. Students explored, created, and were inspired by the works of Hokusai, Georgia O’Keeffe, Vincent van Gogh, Alma Thomas, René Magritte, and more. A magical celebration filled with creativity, colour, and smiles!

Congratulations to the Winners of the Downie Central Public School Kindness & Integrity Poster Contest 2026! 🎉
This year's poster contest challenged students to creatively explore the themes of Kindness and Integrity through hand-drawn, full-colour artwork.

Integrity means being strong enough to do what you know is right—even when it's difficult and even when no one is watching. Kindness is showing care and compassion toward yourself and others and making a positive difference in the lives of those around you. Together, these values help build a caring, connected, and respectful school community.

We were incredibly impressed by the creativity, thoughtfulness, and artistic talent demonstrated by all participants. Thank you to every student who submitted a poster and shared their vision of kindness and integrity.

Social connection is essential to overall health and well-being.

But nearly 1 in 5 youth between the ages of 15–24 report feeling lonely often or always.

This May 4–8, students across the District are invited to in celebration of Mental Health Week. It’s a call to spark small, everyday actions of connection, and to recognize the role we all play in supporting mental health through connection.
