The programming on Fairchild Radio is of particular value to Cantonese speaking families, as all weekday
programming is hosted in that language. Other culturally-specific programs are aired on the evenings and
weekends. Program information is available on the Fairchild Radio website at wwwfm947.com/en/index.php.
Because Fairchild is unable to broadcast a program in several languages simultaneously, Communications Services
and CEOP will liaise with Fairchild from time to time to communicate non-urgent messages, such as information
about public meetings or other events that address impacts to student designation or educational learning.
With this new initiative, the CBE hopes to continue strengthening its relationships and effective communication
with all parent communities.
If you have ideas about how to communicate more effectively with families who speak English as a second
language or with any parent community, we’d love to hear from you! Fill out our online feedback form at:
http://www.cbe.ab.ca/schools/ceop/feedback.asp
Be sure to leave the Student Accommodation Issue box blank when completing the form. Your insights and
observations will help us grow and expand our efforts at communicating effectively with you.
And remember to tune into 94.7FM to catch Calgary’s multicultural radio station live!

MODEL UN
Twenty-four E.P. Scarlett students woke up early and showed up at the University of Calgary at 9:00 am to
start a two-day Model United Nations simulation. Scarlett has been participating in this for several years now,
and has always put in a great effort. This year was no exception! We had students representing nations from
Burundi, Macedonia, Myanmar, Tunisia, Maldives, Ukraine, Belarus, Indonesia, Congo, Kazakhstan, and Zimbabwe.
Special kudos go to the Indonesian team members, especially Katelyn Maki and Rachel Beames, who made waves
(excuse the pun) on the Security Council and in several committees. The Ukraine team did some great work as
well. And we had several people who made an effort to dress in nation-appropriate costumes, especially Emily
Campbell, who was dressy in her Burundian outfit. Thanks very much to all participants, who made Scarlett look
good …..again! For those of you in Grade 10 or 11, I look forward to working with you again next year!
DEBATE
After six months of participation in various debate tournaments around the city, we finally arrived at the
regionals at Bishop O’Byrne Saturday, March 8 th . The topic was “Be it Resolved that Free Trade has been
beneficial to the developing world, which is definitely not an easy one. The Scarlett contingent put in a huge
effort. Katherine Rabik and Julie Reimer have had a great year as new debaters.
