As opposed to having parents shop for school supplies, École Assiniboine collects a set fee from parents for each child to cover the cost of school supplies (i.e. pencils, crayons, glue, notebooks, duo-tangs, special crafts, classroom projects, etc.) There are many benefits to this model...
- Buying bulk allows for reduced costs.
- No child is ever without materials.
- Quality and Quantity are consistent within the room.
- Problems with lost materials are eliminated.
- A cooperative attitude towards shared responsibility is fostered with the children.
The student fees for the 2026-2027 school year are:- Kindergarten - $35.00 per student
- Grade 1 - Grade 5 - $50.00 per student
FEES ARE DUE WHEN CLASSES START IN SEPTEMBER AND CAN BE PAID USING SCHOOL CASH ONLINE STARTING THE LAST WEEK OF AUGUST.

Additionally, parents are asked to provide the following personal items:
**Please label all items with your child's name**- Indoor shoes - to be kept in the classroom (No lace-ups unless they can be tied independently)
- Backpack - regular size to be able to fit lunch kit, snacks, water bottle, library books, change of clothes (no mini backpacks)
- Lunch kit - for lunches / snacks
- Refillable water bottle
- Change of clothes for Kindergarten to Grade 3 (underwear, socks, shirt, pants) - to be kept in a ziplock bag labelled with the child's name
**All Grade 4 & 5 students plus the Grade 3 students in Mme DeSousa's Grade 3/4 class (Rm. 17) also require the following additional personal items:
- 1 set of headphones (earbuds) - available at dollar stores
- 1 Yamaha soprano recorder (for Music class) - Bring your own or purchase one through the school for $7.40 (via School Cash Online or by cash or cheque payable to École Assiniboine) Payment must be received by Friday, September 11, 2026 so that we can order them.
