Welcome to Balmoral School for the 2026-2027 school year! Please note that the first day of school will be August 31, 2026. An email will be sent out during the last week of August with information about your child’s homeroom teacher and meeting location for the first day. 

Here is our presentation from our orientation evening in May: Welcome to Balmoral Presentation | May, 2026  

This contains valuable information about our school and programs we offer. In particular, please note the school uniform provider is McCarthy’s Uniform's and all students need their uniforms for the first day of school.

The school office will open on August 27 – please contact us at 403-777-7330 or balmoral@cbe.ab.ca if you have any questions.

First Day Information

The first day of school for students is Monday, August 31. Buses will be running this day - please check your MyCBE account for bus stop locations and timings, and ensure your child is there on time. Also please ensure they know their BUS LETTER so that they know which bus to board after school as well. We will be running regular school hours this day (7:55 am - 2:30 pm). Students will be meeting teachers outside on the fields (exact location will be in your welcome email) starting at 7:45 am and be grouped into their homerooms.

Homerooms

Teachers will be returning to school on August 26. All families should be receiving a welcome email from your child's homeroom teacher by end of day August 27. Please note that class lists are made with careful thought given to student learning, social dynamics, and balancing academic needs, and class changes cannot be accommodated at this time.
