Planning to attend Parkland Elementary in September? Here's what you need to know!
If you haven't yet registered your student(s) with our school, please reach out for a registration package. You can call the school at 250-843-7777. If the date is between July 3 and August 31, it is better to reach us by sending an email to "parkland@sd59.bc.ca".
Students should come to school in September with a pair of clean, inside shoes and a re-useable water bottle. Students do not need to bring their own school supplies; the school will provide what they need. It is more economical for the school to purchase supplies in bulk from a wholesaler and charge school fees, rather than have families purchasing individual supplies at retail prices. This year, school fees will be $40 each for primary students (K to grade 3) and $50 each for intermediate students (grades 4-7).
The first day of school is Wednesday September 9th, 2026. This is a half day, which begins 2 hours later and ends 1 hour earlier than normal. If you are dropping your child off, plan to be at the school at 9:50am, when morning supervision begins and buses arrive. Class begins at 10:12am and ends at 12:58pm. Expect your child home off the bus one hour earlier than normal.
Regular school hours will resume on Thursday September 10th, 2026. Buses arrive and morning supervision begins at 7:50am. Please do not drop students off before this time. The school day is over at 1:58pm.
We look forward to the seeing you all for the new school year!
