We are a primary to grade six school with about 165 students expected for our 2002/2003 school year. This will mean our largest class is about twenty-seven and our smallest about nineteen.
Our teaching staff, at present numbers thirteen, which consists of both full-time and part-time teachers. I am currently a teaching principal, teaching part days.
We offer music and physical education classes and will have a full time learning center for next year. There is an after school sports program offered by our physical education teacher.
Our school has a full time cafeteria offering hot meals everyday.We also have a full size gymnasium, which also serves as our seating area for lunch.
You will find such proactive measures as Peer Mediation, offered by our grade six students; found doing good which is an opportunity for our school to recognize positive student behavior. We encourage our students to use their hands for helping and to respect our hands off policy toward other students. We recognize student achievement through our monthly student assembly.
Our school is located ten minutes west of Truro, NS., off the Trans Canada Highway # 104 and minutes from other schools in the area. The majority of our students are bused into our school. School hours are 8:30 AM. Through 2:30 PM.
We will look forward to seeing you.
