Queen Elizabeth School

Our school day has not changed, our day is from 7:55AM-2:30PM. Before school supervision starts at 7:55AM. At this time, parents/guardians are not permitted to be on the school yard at any part of the day- before school or after school. We have created a QEB process for drop off and pick up of students. 

When students arrive at the school, they will need to enter through their designated gate and go directly to their class line. If possible, we encourage you to not come too early as this will mean your child is standing in line longer.

There will be no parking available for parents/guardians on school property before or after school. The parking areas are for staff only. If you need parking, please park in the neighbourhood and walk.

We are asking that our families use the sidewalks to access the gates and refrain from walking though the parking lots and "drop and go" area.

Kindergarten- Grade 5

Driving to School:

A DROP and GO is located on the north side of the school off of Macdonald Gardens. You can pull into the roundabout and at Gate C, your child can get out of the car and enter the yard. Staff will not be helping get students and their belongings out of vehicles. 

Please wait your turn in the line, try to encourage a quick but safe exit from the car and please do not pull ahead of cars in the line if your child has already exited the car.

A staff member will be at the gate to help direct students to their line up area.

Walking to School:

Students walking to school in KM - Grade 5 will enter at Gate A.

Buses continue to arrive  at the front of the school. Students will walk into the school and out the primary or intermediate doors to join their class lines.

We will continue to have Drop and GO by the front Gate D on Macdonald Avenue. You CANNOT park here for a length of time but students can be dropped off, proceed to the sidewalk and enter through Gate D. (Please do not drop off your child in our front parking lot as this is our bus drop off area in the morning and afternoon.)
