Congratulations, Cross Country Runners!
Congratulations to all the Bulldogs who braved wasps, wind, rain, and sun (all on the same day sometimes) to represent our school in Cross Country. Good luck to SJ and Jacob, both from grade 5, who will be representing our school at the Championship meet this Tuesday!
Welcome!
Please welcome two new staff members to the Bulldogs family! Ms. Wells is taking over for Ms. Sidhu who has begun her maternity leave (no news there, yet), and Ms. Shalev is the newest member of our team of Education Assistants.

Did you know that the Township of Langley Firefighters conduct a clothing drive every year? And did you know that the proceeds fund snack programs in Langley schools (including ours) so we can ‘top up’ kids who are hungry? This year’s clothing drive is coming soon!

General PAC Meeting – Monday, October 16th
Please join us for the 1st General PAC Meeting of the year on Monday October 16th at 7 PM in the Richard Bulpitt Elementary School Library.
You can enter through the main entry doors at the front of the school.
This is open to all parents of the RBE school community.
We will have a guest speaker, Abran Johnson, from the Ministry of Children and Families. He’s part of a team of social workers, within the BC Public Service, working to recruit foster parents, as there is a need for foster families in the region. He would like to be able to reach families and adults (19+) who may be interested in fostering children or have questions about the process, so that we can support our children and help keep them in their home communities and schools.
Hope to see you there!
We’re still looking for Class Parents!
