CRIMINAL RECORD CHECK

Any parents who wish to volunteer at the school to work one on one with students and wish to volunteer to drive students must have a criminal record check.  You can apply for the Criminal Record Check on line,

The online link is :    https://justice.gov.bc.ca/eCRC/home.htm 

Access Code is: V5BDJZSE9J

There is no cost associated with the criminal check if you are volunteering.

REMINDERS

MEDICAL ALERTS

St. Bernadette School takes medical alerts very seriously.  As such, we are always using best practice to stay with the recommendations, regulations and policies as set out by the BC government and our CISVA.  Those whose families indicated that their child has a medical alert should have received a red coloured form last week asking for you and your physician to fill it out.  It is important that we have the most current and up-to-date information.  Please return the form to the school as soon as possible as we need the information to reach teachers.

If you believe your child should be on a medical alert and you did not receive a red coloured form, please contact the school office immediately.

 

PARENT PARTNERSHIP AND PARTICIPATION

As we start a new year we would like to honour the productive partnership we have with our parents. Because of your involvement, it allows us to certify that every student can achieve his/her highest potential.  We recognize that in order to be successful in school, our students need support from both the home and school. As partners in your child’s education, we share the responsibility for their success and want you to know that we will do our very best to carry out our responsibilities.

We ask that you guide and support your child’s learning by ensuring that he/she:

1.    Attends school daily and arrives on time, ready for the day’s learning experience

2.    Completes all homework assignments given by teachers

3.    Reads daily to develop a love for reading and to improve literacy skills

4.    Shares school experiences with you so that you are aware of his/her school life

5.    Informs you if he/she needs additional support in any area or subject

6.    Knows that you expect him/her to succeed in school

Your presence in our school, involvement in building community with other families, and dedication to making our school a safe and welcoming environment are key factors to the success of your child and the school as a whole.  We would like to thank you for joining our parent participation program, be it through fundraising, maintenance, classroom helpers or reps, etc., as our students can greatly benefit from your involvement and contributions to the school’s program and its operations.

 

USED UNIFORMS

Used uniforms are needed to help re-stock the shelves for our used uniforms.  If you have any used uniform items to donate, please contact Angeline at:  useduniforms@stbernadette.ca

All proceeds generated from the sales of used uniforms comes directly back to the school.

 

PARKING LOT DROP OFF AND PICK UP

We had lines painted in the parking lot a couple of years ago to increase child safety. The design is also provides students with more activities during recess and to provide better safety measures during school hours. The solid yellow line running parallel to the school field and playground is not to be crossed by any vehicle from 7am (the start of Stingers Club) to 6pm (the end of Stingers Club). This is to ensure proper safety for our students.

We ask that you familiarize yourself with the drop off and pick up routines in the parent handbook. (If you don’t have a handbook you can download one off our website).

We will continue to close the alleyway beside the church hall.  Although this provides a service for parents who want to quickly drop off their child and go, there are too many safety breaches and concerns.  The vast majority of our parking lot incidents occurred when the alleyway was open.  We also noticed that most safety breaches occur between the time of 8:50 and 9:05am. Please make arrangements to drop off your child(ren) early to avoid parking lot frustrations.

 

LABEL YOUR UNIFORMS

We notice that quite often we find uniforms in the lost and found without student names on it. It is important to label your uniforms and to relabel them throughout the year if you are using a marker on a tag.

APPRECIATION

IS AN EXPENSIVE GIFT

WHICH SHOULD BE GIVEN FREELY!!!
