Weekly Update – September 21-25, 2026

School Council

We are excited to invite you to our first School Council Meeting on September 23rd, from 6:00 to 7:00 pm, held in person at the school. School councils play an important advisory role, ensuring that parent and community perspectives are reflected in school decision-making. They also help share information about the school with the wider community. This is a wonderful opportunity to be involved and have a voice in your child’s educational experience. We look forward to seeing you on the 23^rd.

Drop-Off, Pick-Up and Traffic Etiquette

Please remember to follow all traffic laws and bylaws and be respectful of our neighbours and one another during drop-off and pick-up. The area directly in front of the school is designated for quick drop-off only, so please do not park, wait, or leave your vehicle unattended in this area. Thank you for helping us keep traffic moving safely and smoothly.

Inclement Weather

Students will continue to go outside for lunch and PE unless there is heavy rain, temperatures are below -20°C, or air quality is poor. Please ensure your child comes prepared for the weather each day. This may mean raincoats and rain boots on wet days, or warm jackets, hats and mittens when temperatures drop!

Away for the Day Cell Phone Policy

Reminder that students are expected to keep their cell phones in their locker at all times of the school day. This includes smartwatches, gaming devices, and earbuds/Bluetooth devices.

Photo Day

LifeTouch will be at Fairview School on September 28 to take our school photos. Since it falls on a Monday, students are expected to be in their formal uniform.

Healthy Hunger

Healthy Hunger is supported and run by our Parent Advisory Council. The restaurants and dates have been posted and you are now able to prepurchase Healthy Hunger meals for your student(s). If you do not currently have a Healthy Hunger account, you can set one up through the following link:

If you prepurchase a meal and your student is absent that day, you can call the school on the day of the event, before 10:00 am, to arrange for pickup at the office. If you cannot pick the meal up by the end of the day, it will not be refrigerated and will be thrown out. Any meals without an alternate pickup arrangement by 10:00 am will be given to students who need lunch.
