It is so wonderful to see all the smiling faces, and to have our students back at school!
Please know the Yearbooks have not arrived as of yet, but we will send out communication once they do. We are anticipating mid-September as their arrival time.
BELL TIMES:
As per Board guidelines, we have streamlined the Bell times to ensure 40 minute instructional blocks.
8:20 – Entry
9:40-9:55 – Morning Recess
11:15-11:35 – Lunch
11:35-12:15 – Recess
1:35-1:50 – Afternoon Recess
2:50 – Dismissal
Please see the important information about attendance reporting.
Parents and guardians are required to report student absence, late arrival or early leave using one of these three methods:
- Toll Free SchoolMessenger Phone Number 1-855-856-7862
- The SchoolMessenger website:
go.schoolmessenger.ca - The SchoolMessenger App (blue icon) from the Apple App Store or the Google Play Store.
Instructions for the use of the new SchoolMessenger website and app have been attached to this email, as well as a letter detailing the Safe Arrival Absence Reporting Procedures.
We appreciate your attention to this important matter.

A friendly reminder to make sure your child has a refillable Water Bottle, as it will save them time, unless you prefer them to drink from the fountains.
Thank you to everyone for their continued support and patience as we get settled into our routines here at NDE.
I wish everyone a wonderful day!
Yours in Catholic Education,
T. Wilkinson
