When is it too cold to go outside?
When the temperature drops to -20 degrees, our students will be kept indoors. Administration monitors the weather conditions and may also call for a modified recess/lunch hour plan. Given the changing nature of the weather in Calgary, we caution all parents to ensure that their child has warm clothing with them during the winter months. Parent opinion on whether or not children should go outside varies.
Some parents want their child to have the opportunity to go outside while others insist their child should stay in. The above plan gives children the ‘choice’. If you want to make the choice on your child’s behalf, a note or call to the classroom teacher will ensure that arrangements are made. Weather in Calgary changes very quickly, so please ensure that students dress for potential weather changes.
