Traffic Fines for parking on Crosswalk:

Duncan Cran Parents: Reminder Cross Walks are for safety purposes–to help children safely cross the road. They are not for parking in, nor when someone asks you to move out of the cross walk to get angry about. Please be mindful of the crosswalk. You will get a fine for parking in a crosswalk. Please note the by-law officers do patrol the schools and have handed out fines already to parents at our school. You do not want a fine! Thank you for your cooperation.

Students Late for School:

Just a reminder that the morning warning bell is at 8:45 and classes begin promptly at 8:50am. It is important that students start their day ready to begin and are at school on time. Thanks for ensuring that your child gets to school on time!

Winter Weather

Please make sure your child comes to school with all of the appropriate items for winter weather! Scarves, mittens, hats, winter coat, snow pants and boots!  The days are getting chilly and we want to make sure students are warm when they go outside for recess.  We send students outside if the temperature with the wind-chill is -18 degrees Celsius or warmer!

 PAC Info:

Our next PAC Meeting will be on Tuesday, November 17th at 7 pm in the library. At the meeting, child minding will be provided by a fun, responsible Duncan Cran student. See you there!
