New School Safety Patrol

The School Safety Patrol has just finished their first week patrolling the crosswalk area at Culloden and East 29th. 

Students in Grades 6 and 7 were trained by Constable Ryan Hooper, a member of the VPD’s Traffic Division. They will be patrolling the crosswalk area at Culloden and East 29th, from 8:40-9:00 and from 3:00-3:20 every day. Please beware and please follow all driving and parking regulations in that area and around the school. New parking regulations have been set along East 29th Avenue. 

A big thank you to all the students who volunteered for this important job. We really appreciate your work and effort.
