Hello and welcome to a brand-new school year! We would like to welcome all new students to Burkevale – some are new to education, while others have moved into our area part way through their educational journey.

The 2024-2025 school year was one that required staff, students and families to dig a little deeper, show a greater level of empathy, and come together to support one another in times of sorrow. Never in my 20+ year history in education have I been a part of a school that has lost a staff member, and this year, Burkevale lost two amazing staff – Ms. Hamill and Ms. Archer. When tragedies like this occur, it causes us to re-examine the important things in life and to ‘not sweat the small stuff’. Hopefully, we all have time to hug those we love a little more, spend some quality time with friends and family, and appreciate the memories and moments that we create over the summer.
