Health and Safety

Our school's Communicable Disease Prevention Plan was developed to promote the health and safety of staff and students.  

Ensuring your children come to school healthy by completing a daily health checki is one of the most effective preventative measures to stay safe.  Alternatively, the K-12 Health Check App serves the same purpose and is an easy-to-use electronic version. 

Health Canada has now approved a vaccine for children aged 5 to 11. Parents and caregivers can register here.
