​Important Dates

We follow the CBE Traditional Calendar. The calendar sets common start and end days, non-instructional days and holidays. For our school’s additional non-instructional days, late entries, early dismissal days and events, see our school calendar page.

The CBE's 2020-21 re-entry plan is subject to change as more information becomes available from the province. We will continue to update schools with more details during the next school year.​​

School Entry looks different this year as we no longer have supervision on the playground or field in the morning and after school. Instead we will have a relaxed entry and the doors will open at 8:45 am at which time students will enter the building and go directly to their classrooms where their teacher will be waiting. We will have a staff member at each of the entrances to greet students and help them sanitize their hands. Relaxed entry is from 8:45am-8:53am. For the week of September 8-11, at the end of the day, teachers will continue to be walk students out of the school by class in order to manage the traffic in the halls.

Noon (lunch) supervision is available for all students in Grades 1 – 4, for students who stay at school. For the safety and security of our students, it is important we know who is supposed to be in the program. All families must register their children in the lunchroom program. The best way to register your child is by going to preregister them using My CBE Account.

Thank you to those families who came out to the grade 1 celebration of learning today. They have been learning all about cause and effect by designing Rube Goldberg machines. They are then transferring their learning to what cause and effect looks like in an ecosystem.

Learning the science of wetlands and ecosystems today through drama. Thanks to @Evergreen_Th for inspiring our thinking and your creative story telling. https://t.co/vIasS9Wo8I
