Safety Comes First

Please THINK TWICE before going ON THE ICE

Parents, we have had reports of youth in our community venturing out onto the partially frozen pond.  This is, of course, a safety concern as the pond does not typically freeze consistently enough to safely allow people to access the ice. 

We are asking that you please have a discussion with your children about Ice Safety and how to determine when an icy surface is a safe place to play.  An excellent resource (with notes and videos) for this discussion can be found through the Canadian Red Cross website at:

Thank you for keeping our students safe as they explore the community this winter,
