Southwood School has been practicing a balanced school day schedule for the past three years. This schedule allows for longer learning blocks, more time outside and less transitions throughout the day.
Your child will have two nutrition breaks throughout the day. When packing their lunch, it is best if it is split up so your child knows what to eat in the morning and what to eat in the afternoon.
We are also a nut aware school. Please don't send your child to school with nut products. For more information, please go to our website at https://southwood.hsd.ca/parents/nut-aware-policy/
The calendar also displays what day of the cycle it is. This is important as Kindergarten is based on the school day cycle. If your child is in K1, K3, K5, your child will attend school on Days 1, 3, 5. If your child is in K2 or K4, your child will attend school on Days 2, 4, 6.
