·  Nothing gory, bloody, violent, or scary. Costumes must be school appropriate (we have preschool children here as well). Students will be asked to remove or cover up anything that is gory, bloody, violent, or scary.

·  No Full-face masks/costumes. We must be able to see a student's face for safety reasons. Students will be asked to remove any full-face masks or costumes that hide their face as we need to recognize and know who everyone is.

·  As per our Code of Conduct (cte.sd23.bc.ca), fake/toy weapons of any sort are not allowed at school. If brought to school, they will be stored in the office until a parent can pick them up.

MBSS Leadership would like to invite your students, families, and staff to join us for a 👻spooktacular👻 evening of fun at second annual Halloween Community Trick-or-Treating Event!

Date: October 30th 

Time: 4:30PM - 6:30PM

Location: Mount Boucherie Secondary School

If you have young children under the age of 12 and are looking for a delightful Halloween activity, look no further! We're hosting a "Trick or Treat" event within our school premises, where children can safely go from room to room, knocking on doors to collect candies and treats from our leadership students, who will be dressed in spooktacular costumes. 

There is a nominal fee of $10, which will grant your child access to this exciting adventure. In addition to the trick-or-treating, there will be refreshments available in the Multipurpose Room (MPR), a movie, and mini games. The best part? All proceeds from this event will be donated to UNICEF!

This event is open to all community members, so come one, come all and spread the word! Please refer to the poster below for more details. Let's make this Halloween a memorable and charitable experience for everyone involved!

Please pay careful attention to the following important dates:

• Thursday, Oct. 31 - Halloween Parade - starting at 9:10 am 

For the safety of our students and school community, please make sure that you are driving slowly.  The speed zone near all schools in BC is 30 km/hr.  

Please note that the speed limit on school grounds (as shown) is 8 km/hr.  

Many families have expressed concerns with the speed of vehicles on East Boundary.  If you have a concern, please come to the office to fill out a concern form, with the license plate number. 

A reminder to all of our CTE Community that we are an All-Nut Aware School. As we have students and staff with life threatening allergies to nut products, we ask that families are extremely vigilant in ensuring that nuts or food containing nut products are not sent to school. Thank you for being proactive in your decision on what your child can bring to school. 

If your child rides to school on a bike, scooter, or skateboard, please have a conversation with them about traffic safety. Thank you for reminding them to walk (not ride) their bikes, scooters, or skateboards on school district property and for walking up and down the hill until they reach the road.  While travelling to and from school, students must wear a helmet. Bikes should be secured with a good lock in our bike racks located at front of school. Thank you for your help in keeping our students safe.

Thank you for sending your child to school with a pair of indoor running shoes. By changing into their indoor shoes as they enter their classroom, students can help ensure the cleanliness and safety of our school building.  These shoes need to be ones that your child can independently put on and take off.

Parents, caregivers and families are always welcome at CTE. Many have expressed interest in volunteering at our school. All volunteers must have a criminal record check completed through our school district. The process is free and criminal record check forms are available at the school office. A successful criminal record check is valid for four years. Please note that criminal record checks that are offered for a fee on various websites are not accepted by the school district, and neither are criminal record checks done for other organizations. If you have had a previous criminal record check and want to see if it is still valid, or have any questions, you are encouraged to contact the school office.
