Happy first snowfall of the year! ☃️ As tomorrow is our Mini School Interview Day, we urge families to keep an eye out on local news outlets (CBC News, Global News, etc) as well as the Vancouver School Board regarding potential school closures in case of a Snow Day.
If the district announces a Snow Day and subsequent school closures, our Mini School Interview Day will need to be postponed. As of this moment (12:00 PM noon on Sunday February 2, 2025), our Interview Day will proceed as normal. Keep an eye out on your emails as well as this page for further updates. Thank you everyone.
