Week in a Glance: April 13 – April 17 

Happy Friday, Raven families,

Wishing all of our families a wonderful weekend. Enjoy the sunshine, and I encourage you to join me in checking out the incredible student projects at the CYSF at the University of Calgary on Saturday morning!

Earth Day | April 22, 2026

• The theme for this year’s Earth Day is conscious consumption.
• Conscious consumption encourages us to consume less, reducing our impact on the planet, while improving our quality of life.
• Earth Day Canada’s 2026 media campaign aims to encourage citizens, municipalities, organizations and businesses to commit to conscious practices, whether they are energy-related, material, digital, organizational, behavioural or collective. The goal: to promote a simpler, more inclusive and sustainable way of life, aligned with planetary boundaries. – earthday.org
