Fresh air and free play time are essential breaks for successful learning. Students will have normal outdoor recesses to a windchill of -21 degrees Celsius. With windchill factors of -23 to -25 degrees Celsius, students will have outdoor recess, and the duration outdoor will be reduced. When windchill factors are -25 degrees Celsius or lower, students will remain indoors.

Noon Hour Lunch & Recess

Currently, we are actively engaged in training our dedicated group of leadership students to assume responsibilities during the noon hour recess and lunch period.


In order to ensure a smooth and efficient operation, we kindly request your cooperation by refraining from unnecessary phone calls to the school during this time. This will allow our student leaders to focus on their assigned duties without interruptions, contributing to the overall well-being and safety of our school environment.


Your understanding and patience in this matter are greatly appreciated.


Merci et bonne fin de semaine
