In 1999, École Garden Grove School created a flag to represent the four main strands of life at our school. This special event flag flies on all special days observed at our school, such as GRAB*, Christmas concerts, science fairs, sports days, community barbecues, etc.. The four sections on the flag represent the balance that we believe is critical for a well-rounded, fulfilling and successful education.

* GRAB – Go Read A Book, our annual learning celebration.
