Awards Night Every year we honor students who have excelled or shown significant improvement.  Awards are presented in the various curricular areas as well as for social skills and personal development.

The Christmas Concert The annual Grassland Christmas Concert is truly a community event.  The concert begins with entertainment by the students and staff.  Students, staff, parents, grandparents, and friends all enjoy the concert.  The ceremony is concluded with a visit from Santa who is a big hit with the younger children.

The Drumheller Field Trip  Grassland School's bi-annual Drumheller trip is an enjoyable learning experience for the Grade 7/8 classes.  As a part of the science curriculum students take part in a three-day trip to Drumheller, where they visit many interesting places including the Tyrell Museum, Groundwork's National Science Museum, Reptile World, and the Atlas Coal mine.  The final treat for the students is to stop for a few hours at West Edmonton Mall. The Junior High concession raises funds for this event.

The Hot Lunch Program Two days a week throughout the school year you can purchase lunch for a dollar or two. This program is made possible through the cooperative efforts of volunteers and parents around the community who prepare and serve these delicious meals to the Grassland students.

Turkey Trot Fundraiser This school is event is an 8-kilometer walk beginning and ending at Grassland school.  About half way through everyone stops at Kravontka’s for a wiener roast.  This event proves to be a wonderful social event.  The Turkey Trot contributes to many activities including swimming lessons, field trips, and the playground society.

Volunteer Tea Each year in May, we honor our volunteers.  The time and talents they contribute to our school is invaluable.  The concert, strawberry shortcake, and tea are a small token of our appreciation.  We appreciate all their effort. 

The Year-end Parties At the end of each year, the elementary grades plan their year-end parties.  With the help of staff and supervisors they head out for a day of fun, food and sun.  Students, staff and parents say goodbye and celebrate the closing of another successful school year. 

D.A.R.E The "Drug Abuse Resists Education" program is taught to the Grade six students by the Boyle R.C.M.P.   D.A.R.E. teaches students about the harmful effects of drugs, alcohol, smoking etc.  This program has been a great success. 

Remembrance Day Every year students participate in a contest where they create posters, poems, and essays depicting those who fought in the war.  The  Legion representatives come and join us in a ceremony.  Following a meal of soup and buns, we watch a traditional Remembrance Day film. 

Swimming In the month of April, the Elementary students travel to the Athabasca Landing Pool and take swimming lessons. They also enjoy a half-hour of free swimming before returning to school.

Skiing In the winter months we book trips to the Tawatinaw Ski Valley.  Students enjoy a full day of skiing and arrive back at the school between 5:30pm and 6:00pm.

Hockey Game/Football Game The Grade 12 class usually organizes a trip to Edmonton to watch a Hockey or Football game.  The Grade twelve class purchases 30-40 tickets and sells them to the students of Grassland School.  Students have fun cheering for their favorite team.

Visiting the Legislature Building Grades four, five, and six visit the Alberta Legislature every two or three years, which integrates nicely into the Social Studies curriculum and promotes life-long learning and responsible citizenship.
