Parking for pick-up and drop-off

Please remember that it is critical that no one parks or drops-off/picks-up students in the bus loop at peak times as buses need this loop to be able to turn. Peak times are 7:50-9:00am and 2:45-3:50pm.

Laker Day – Term 1

Laker Day has been scheduled for Tuesday, December 15, 2009.  Unfortunately it does not appear that the weather is going to be very cooperative for the skiers heading to Worsley.  The following is our tentative plan –
