We are hoping that you had a great summer and that you are excited about the school year. The first day of school is Tuesday, September 7, 2021.
The first day of school is a shortened day with a staggered start. Just a reminder that all students should be wearing their masks when they arrive.
-
If you are a grade six student, please arrive at the school by 8:50 a.m. and gather outside the school entrance by the Hawksnest (playscape). We will have all our staff outside greeting students and ensuring they know where they are going. Your name will be posted with your division number beside it. Beginning at 9:00 a.m. grade six students will be called to the field and asked to sit behind a cone with their division number on it. At that time you will meet your advisory (homeroom) teacher and head to class.
-
At 9:20 a.m. Grade, 7 and 8 student divisions will be shared. Your name will be posted with your division number beside it. Grade 7 and 8's will be called to the field at 9:30 a.m. to meet their advisory teacher.
Please leave your supplies at home on the first day of school. When you have been assigned a locker then you can bring the rest of your school supplies.
