It is teacher appreciation week! Can you guess which teacher this is holding a 13 lb Jackfish?? Here are a few hints: She still loves going to Saskatchewan in the summer, but she has been in Alberta for so long she no longer cheers for the @sskroughriders ! She also loves skiing at @sunshinevillage , hiking in the foothills, hanging with her family and reading a good book 📚!!! She loves a good TV series, and all things music, too! Which of our amazing St. Luke’s teachers might this be? Look close… she hasn’t changed much! #teacherappreciationweek #lifeatstlukes #leavenotoneheartbehind #fish #bigcatch #guess #whoisit #schoolfun #history

Mrs. Hartery from our Brooks campus and our incredible Vice-Principal, Mr. Sinclair, from our Okotoks campus deserve all the appreciation!!

Follow our stories for Camp highlights and stay tuned for some teacher appreciation fun this week!!! #teachersofinstagram #teacherlife #lifeatstlukes #leavenotoneheartbehind #thankateacher

It’s officially GOPHER SEASON! Our Brooks campus got outside today to enjoy the sunshine and brush up on some track and field skills! Javelin and shot put were on the training plan today, we are excited to compete later this month!! Good luck to all of our Golden Gopher athletes!!! #gopherit #gogophers #lifeatstlukes #leavenotoneheartbehind #getoutside #trackandfield #javelin #shotput #studentathlete

Mrs. Parks at our Okotoks campus is taking English outside today!!! Journal writing is always better in nature!! Especially if you pause to skip a few rocks to overcome “writers block”! Inspiration is everywhere!!! Whether you are writing under a bridge, or on a bench in the sunshine, or on a riverbed by a stream, the writing process is more fun when we take a little time to change our environment and enjoy the spring weather! #lifeatstlukes #leavenotoneheartbehind #classroomwin #getoutside #alternativelearning #journal #youngwriters #pentopaper #spring #instagood

Our campuses do not have traditional gymnasiums, so sometimes we have to get creative for physical education! Today our High River campus is at George Lane Park tossing some shoes! It is an absolutely beautiful day in the foothills! Sometimes being forced to get creative has major advantages! #lifeatstlukes #leavenotoneheartbehind #physicaleducation #getoutside

May 1 was PRINCIPAL DAY and we have the very best! Mrs. Woehleke has been with St.Luke’s since it was founded and she is incredibly passionate about helping every single student meet their full potential! She is kind and welcoming and she believes EVERYONE can be successful with a little support! She is also patient and forgiving and dedicated to creating a culture of faith, hope and love at each of our three campuses. We are all about second chances here and that’s because of the nature of our Principal and her right hand man, Mr. Sinclair! She is also a mom to three grown sons, a grandmother of two and a wife, yet she makes each of us feel appreciated and valued! St.Luke’s is family, because she is here!! “Leave not one heart behind.” is our motto here at Luke’s… and it started with this lady! She is a class act and leaves everyone she meets, just a little better than before! #ourfearlessleader #principalday #thankaprincipal #ctrcatholic @ctrcatholic #lifeatstlukes #leavenotoneheartbehind #itsstartswithkindness #bekind #faithhopelove

This FEATURE STUDENT FRIDAY comes to you from our campus in Brooks, and also from all the way south in the USA!!! 🇺🇸 We want to give a big Golden Gophers high five ✋🏼 to Mason Eggen from our Brooks Campus. Mason played as a defencemen for the Helena Bighorns hockey club in Montana this winter, and he and his team won first seed in their division!!! 🥇🏒 🥅 Mason also was able to maintain an Honor Roll 📜 average while taking challenging courses like Math 20-1, English 20-1, Chemistry 20, Social 20-1!! This is not by accident. Mason works hard on and off the ice and the best part is, he is also a fantastic young man of character! We are very proud to call him ours!!! We love that we can accommodate students like Mason to meet their athletic and academic goals simultaneously!!! Thanks for being an incredible ambassador for life at St. Luke’s! We will be cheering you on in ALL your future endeavours! Side note: We also LOVE that he had a Minnesota Golden Gophers hoodie on yesterday. Makes your fellow St. Luke’s Golden Gophers extra proud! #featurestudentfriday #lifeatstlukes #gogophers #gopherit #studentathlete #dreambig #athlete #hockeylife #schoolmeetssports #leavenotoneheartbehind #studentlife

After years of pandemic restrictions, our @stlukesoutreach.ctr Brooks campus is filled with gratitude and hope after finally being able to rejoin the monthly Mass with the residents of Newbrook Lodge. This was a mass experience filled with joy! It was so great to see so many of our senior parishioners after being separated for so long. Father Marino’s homily was filled with great wisdom of being obedient in school, home and faith . This is a tradition we are so excited to restart!! Thanks to Newbrook for having us and Father Marino for inspiring us! #lifeatstlukes #weareoutreach #leavenotoneheartbehind #mass #praytogether #slobrooks

Easter blessings from our St. Luke’s family to yours! “He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay.” Matthew 28:6 “And God raised the Lord and will also raise us up by his power.” 1 Cor. 6:14 #easter #heisrisen #leavenotoneheartbehind #weareoutreach #stlukes #ibelieveincatholiced

Good Friday is time of reflection and penance and reverence. Take some time today to reflect not only on Christ’s journey through the 14th stations of the cross, but on your own journey through life. We get second chances because He died for us. Through his sacrifice, we are saved. Our prayer is that you feel the power of His sacrifice and that you find Faith, Hope and Love this Easter season. "This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins." - 1 John 4:10 #goodfriday #easter #sacrifice #itisfinished✝️ #faithhopelove #thegreatestoftheseislove #weareoutreach #lifeatstlukes

Students from our St. Luke’s campus in Brooks, Alberta had had an incredible opportunity this week! As a part of the Cosmetology class 2 students were invited to spend some time at @cosmohairstudio1981 to be taught by Amanda Sinclair! 💇🏼‍♀️ Amanda is not only one of the owners of the salon, she is a talented and experienced professional in her craft and we are so grateful for her time and expertise! What a great salon! Ally and Yesli had fun matching colour dye 🎨 with the mannequins hair, mixing and dying the hair, 💆🏼‍♀️ letting the dye process, 👩‍🦰 and they wrapped up their day by washing the mannequins hair 🧖🏼‍♀️ and drying it. 💨 The students had a great time, they learned a lot, and they felt so welcome! It was also a neat way to get a behind the scenes look at at an amazing local business! Thank you, Amanda and Cosmo Hair Studio for having us! 💖🫶🏻 #lifeatstlukes #stlukes #weareoutreach #leavenotoneheartbehind #cosmotology #hair #learnfromthebest
