PREPARING FOR THE WEATHER

In the event of an emergency or inclement weather, listen to CKNW AM 980 on the radio for information regarding any school closure. Information can also be found on the web site, www.cknw.com. In the case of inclement weather in the morning, closures are usually reported every ten to fifteen minutes.  The class phoning moms will phone all the families to ensure that everyone is informed of the closure. Please do not tie up the school and parish telephone lines by trying to call these offices. The radio station WILL NOT announce if the school is open; therefore, if you DO NOT hear the name of the school then the school is open. As traveling conditions vary depending on where you live, please use your own judgment regarding sending your child to school. The staff, however, will always work to keep the school open when safety is not in question.  Also, please remind your child/ren to wear clothing appropriate to the weather, (i.e. boots, warm jacket, mitts, toques). If weather conditions are reasonable, students will go outside to get some fresh air during recess and lunch breaks.
