Procedures for students who go home for lunch:
- Students going home for lunch leave the school after gaining parent permission and checking out at the office
- For safety we ask that all students go directly home and that an adult be home to greet them
NOTE: Students are not permitted to leave the school grounds without written permission or a phone call to a staff member from their parents.
Supervision
- Each wing of the school has a lunch supervisor circulating through the classrooms.
- An additional staff member is circulating throughout the school.
- Staff members are on duty at all recesses. They wear bright orange vests making them easily identifiable to students.
Allergies
- Each classroom is labeled with allergy alert signs. Please be aware of the food sensitivities of your child's classmates when sending food items.
- An "allergy aware" sign indicates these foods can not be shared by classmates.
- If there is an anaphylactic allergy through touch and/or smell a red "alert" notice is posted on the "allergy aware" sign.
- If you are ever in doubt please question the classroom teacher or ask at the office. The safety of our students is always our priority.

Volunteering
- We welcome parent volunteers in our school. If you wish to volunteer please contact the office. Caring adults in our school create a warm and welcoming atmosphere for our students.
