Supervision

  • Adult Supervisors wearing orange vest are responsible for the supervision of students during lunchtime.  They will assist students with whatever is needed.  
  • Students enrolled in the lunchroom program must be signed out in the office by parents before leaving the school.

Recycling/Waste/Compost

  • All garbage must be placed in the garbage bins provided.  Students will be dismissed when their area is clean.
  • There are plastic bins for garbage and recycle bins for juice boxes, water bottles, cartons and cans in the lunchroom.   
  • Green compost bins are available during lunch time.

Allergy Aware

We have children at our school who are allergic to nuts and related nut products. Therefore, we discourage the consumption of these products at recess and during the lunch hour. See more on our Illness & Medical page.

The CBE provides students with the option to stay at school for lunch. Lunch Supervision is offered to all students in Grades 1- 6 and in our full-day kindergarten programs for an annual fee. Students in these grades require direct supervision during the lunch hour, regardless of the grade configuration of the school or the mode of transportation the students use to get to and from school each day. 

​Principals have the flexibility to make school-based decisions for their lunch supervision programs.​

You can expect the following for your lunch supervision fees:

  • Students must remain on school grounds, unless written permission has been provided to the school by a parent/guardian.
