    NOTICE OF EXTENDED DAY - PROGRAM CANCELLATION

    Please be advised that the Extended Day Program operated by the 
    Ottawa-Carleton District School Board will be cancelled on Friday, November 20th, 2015. 
    Please be advised that the OCDSB extended day program will not be able to offer full day child care on November 20th, a scheduled professional activity day. The continuing sanctions by OSSTF support staff have made it extremely difficult to ensure an accurate registration process and this creates a serious impact on our safe arrival process. We understand the difficulties this will cause for parents, but cannot proceed when we are unable to assure the safety of all of our students. The cancellation applies to all EDP programs operated directly by the OCDSB. Those sites which are managed by a third party operator will continue to operate. A detailed list of the programs affected by the cancellation is available at http://goo.gl/pfQNcs

    Remembrance Day Ceremonies

    We welcome families with military connections to attend our Remembrance Day Ceremonies on November 11. An age appropriate Kindergarten Ceremony will be held from 9 - 9:30 in Gym 1. The Grades 1 - 6 Ceremony will be held in Gym 2 from 9:50 - 10:30Please note that our gym is almost at full capacity with our students and staff. 

    This year marks the 100th anniversary of the poem 'In Flanders Fields' written by Canadian soldier John McCrae. The Vimy Foundation recently launched a campaign called 'In Flanders Fields 100', which aims to see 100,000 students recite the poem on Remembrance Day. 

    Our school is registered for this initiative and our students will be adding their voices to those of thousands of other students across Canada in honour of those famous words that were penned in May 1915.
