Treaty 6 Acknowledgment

We acknowledge that we are on Treaty 6 territory, a traditional meeting grounds, gathering place, and travelling route to the Cree, Saulteaux, Blackfoot, Métis, Dene and Nakota Sioux. We acknowledge all the many First Nations, Métis, and Inuit whose footsteps have marked these lands for centuries.

Welcome to Mrs. Calder's E-Teacher page. I am excited to take on the First Nations, Metis and Inuit teaching at Lamont Elementary. Please feel free to view this page on a regular basis to see what we are up to at our school. You can also catch up on what is happening by following @calder_grade3 on Twitter.

Meet the Teacher

Mrs. Joanne Calder
My name is Joanne Calder. Lamont is extremely dear to my heart as it is where I grew up and went to school myself. My entire teaching career has been at Lamont Elementary School. I taught grade five my first year teaching in the 2007-2008 school year and have taught grade three ever since. This year I am excited to be able to work with all grades and take on the new journey of teaching about the First Nations, Metis and Inuit cultures.
In the summer of 2008 I married my husband Scott Calder, who is an Emergency Services Advisor at Sherritt and is also a captain on the volunteer Fire Department in Lamont.
In the 2011-2012 school year, I was away on maternity leave with my daughter Cheyanne, who was born on November 7, 2011 and my second maternity leave was with my son Jaxon for the 2014-2015 School Year. He was born on July 25, 2014.
When I am not teaching or planning awesome things for us to do at school… I enjoy camping, shopping, playing ball, curling, dining-out and spending time with family and friends.
SOME OF MY FAVORITE Things:

Restaurant: Joey Tomatoes
Color: Blue
Sports: curling, baseball, hockey (Oiler's Fan)
