Request for volunteer coaches
September is approaching quickly and with it, our fall sports season at Queen Charlotte. We take pride in our school sports programs, as they provide many students with the opportunity to play a sport, be a member of a team, make friends, and find “their place” at QC. We appreciate the work and commitment of all our volunteers over the years.
When possible, we enjoy being able to have our staff as coaches, but we have been lucky to have many great community volunteers over the years and know we will always need them in the future.
We are now accepting applications for our fall sports teams.
Boys and Girls Volleyball
Boys and Girls Soccer
Boys and Girls Cross Country
Boys and Girls Golf
Girls Field Hockey
You can forward your name, along with your coaching background and a brief description of your vision or plan for the upcoming season to Allister Smith at axsmith@edu.pe.ca. We would like to receive all applications by August 31st.
Thank you in advance for your interest in our Coyote athletes!

Colonel Gray IB program
Information From Colonel Gray..
Hi everyone,
It is that time of year again … registration for Grade 10 is on the horizon. Some of your students may be interested in the IB DP at Colonel Gray as their path to graduation. If so, I very strongly encourage both student and parent attendance at an IB Information Meeting to be held on Monday, March 14th at 7:00 p.m. in the Colonel Gray Lecture Theatre. Information about the IBDP will provided, and a Question and Answer session held. Additionally, important application procedures and time lines will be discussed.
Please note an important change for this year’s registration process: It is our intention to have the pre-IB class decided before students register for grade 10 in mid-April so that on registration day, they know what classes they should choose. Students will not be able to register for pre-IB courses on registration day unless they have gone through the application process. More information will be provided to parents/students at the information session.
