The CBE Dates of Significance Events Calendar
Dear Families,
Thank you to the volunteers this past week who were able to help out with the fun lunch. It went so smoothly, and we were able to use some extra hands in the Den - Learning Commons to help with shelving a mountain of books that had been checked in. Thank you as well to the School Enrichment Society for the gift of a wonderful supper for teachers during conferences, followed by Tim Horton's treats on the Friday morning.

Fire Drill and Fire Trucks here Last Week
When schools conduct a fire drill, a notification is sent to the Fire Department from the CBE Security Team that the school is having a drill. Due to a computer error last week, the Fire Department was dispatched in error. We had several inquiries and have involved the CBE Security Team at the system level to ensure this doesn’t happen again. The good news is that the response time was very fast!
Dr. Freda Miller School Enrichment Society Update on School Swag/Clothing Orders
The Dr. Freda Miller School Enrichment Society has heard back from their vendor and there have been delays in their stock shipments. They are still waiting on some items and do not have an expected order completion date yet. The School Enrichment Society recognizes that this is much later than the initial delivery date that was provided and they will continue to stress this point with the vendor. A new delivery date will be communicated as soon as possible. Thank you to everyone for their patience and they hope to have your orders to you soon.
Have a great week!
Nancy, Julie & Staff
