MESSAGES:
TERRA COTTA COOKIE FUNDRAISER: The Kindergarten Division is raising money for Chris Hadfield Public
School. Profits will be supporting the purchase of Kindergarten Learning Materials. Terra Cotta Cookies
provides delicious, nut-free cookies you will love (they also have gluten-free and vegan options!). Each
package contains 40 frozen cookie dough drops you can store in the freezer for…well, probably not too long
as they are too yummy to resist.
Ordering Starts Online - May 2nd-16th

Pick-up day May 30th (3:35pm-5:30pm) at CHPS…..details to follow!
RAPID ANTIGEN TESTS: We have a limited supply of rapid antigen tests available in the school. If you would
like to request one, please let your child’s teacher know and we will send some home with them (dependent
on availability).
WATER FOUNTAINS RE-OPENED: After over two year of closing off our water fountains, they have been
turned back on for staff and student use. Since water fountains and refillable water bottle stations are
available for use, the office will no longer be providing cups or plastic water bottles for students.
DAILY COVID 19 SCREENING FOR STUDENTS: Please ensure that your child(ren) review the Covid 19
screening tool each day, prior to coming to school:
https://covid-19.ontario.ca/school-screening/
PARKING LOT: The entrance coming into our school on West Park Avenue is closed from 9:00 a.m. until 3:45
p.m. This entrance will be used for bussing and Emergency vehicles only during this time. We have had to
make this decision due to the number of vehicles speeding through this area, creating unsafe conditions.
There have also been numerous occasions where people have parked in the fire safety zones preventing
Emergency vehicles from accessing these locations. Visitors can access our parking lot behind the school
using the Miller Park Avenue entrance during school hours. We would ask that parents/guardians please
follow the directions of our staff on duty in the parking lot, before and after school. We are providing
direction in the interest of student safety. We would also ask that our disabled parking spaces are not
blocked. We have connected with South Simcoe Police and By-Law officers who have informed us that they
will be monitoring our school neighbourhood regularly during school entry and exit times. Furthermore, we
would ask that our families do not block our neighbour’s driveway when picking up or dropping off students.
We have heard from our By-Law officers who have shared that this has been a growing concern in our
community.
WALKING TO SCHOOL: As our school and community continues to grow, traffic congestion within our school
parking lot and surrounding streets is a safety concern for our students and families. Chris Hadfield Public
School is a designated walking school and we would ask that families make a concerted effort to have
students walk to and from school. This would establish healthy routines for students and promote an
environmentally friendly practice. We continue to work with our partners at South Simcoe Police and the
town of Bradford to ensure the safety of all of our community stakeholders. We appreciate your cooperation with this matter.<br></p> | | | |
