Our Website
Many of our students are now members of our online website community. It has proven to be a great tool for students to communicate with each other, in a safe and wholesome environment. I am hoping this membership will expand and grow. It is a great place for students to chat with other students, ask questions, read about the arts and keep up with current events in our school. Membership is totally FREE for all students and parents.
Something new on our website is the Classified Ads section. Parents have asked me over the years about us possibly selling 'used' equipment or helping them do so. Now being a business, we as a school are bound by the Ontario Sales Tax act and the laws that go with it. In fact, we only sell equipment and uniforms to our members, not the general public! With that in mind, parents and student may now 'post' article for sale on our website. This works just like it does with online newspapers, except it is totally free. You can even include a picture!
Come to our website and check it out!
