Hello Townsview Families

I am touching base to bring you up-to-speed for having your child return to school next week.  

As you all know that our COVID 19 journey continues and there will be some COVID restrictions

for staff & students.  

I know some of you have questions, and I would like to reassure you we are wanting to have all 

of our staff and students to have a safe return back to school. 

*Once again, we are having a staggered entry plan for our first week back to school (next week),

and during this staggered entry, we would like to let you know that during your child’s designated staggered entry day,

if needed, we are allowing one parent to walk into the school with their child.  This will allow

a parent to walk their child to their classroom and help them with their school supplies; and 

any other personal items that they may have.  This will give you an opportunity to be able to

see where your child’s homeroom is located.  We ask that you keep this to one parent,

it is extremely important that all parents and students coming 

into the school will need to wear their community face mask, and your child will need to wear 

their mask in all common spaces inside the school.  

is only for parents dropping off their child and then going - the traffic flow is to be fluid as it possibly can.   It is important to note for safety issues, that parents should not be stopping in the outside lane of the “stop-drop lane” to drop their child off,

they should stop in the lane closest to the sidewalk.

*  Week #1 Return to School Staggered Entry Dates

​

*  There will be no cafeteria services the first week back – parents will need to provide morning snacks, lunches and drinks for the first week back.  The cafeteria opens 

on Monday, September 13^th.  We will be sending home a Chartwell Menu for your convenience. 

* Refillable water bottles, book bags, coats, hand sanitizer, indoor shoes, lunch bags, etc.  – it is extremely important to put their name on them, so if they get lost, it is so much easier to return them

* All K-8 classes will be eating their lunch in the cafeteria

* Mask Use – it is important for your child to bring a community face mask (maybe even 2) as there will be times throughout the school day that students will be required to wear their face mask (common places).  

It would be ideal to have your child store their mask in a zip lock baggie with their name on it.

* Middle School students will have a $31.50 student fee.  The fee can be paid via school cheque, cash or by school cash on-line

https://anglophonewest.schoolcashonline.com/, the preferred payment is by school cash on-line.   

*K-2 End of Day Dismissal & Parent Pick Up – Parents/Guardians will wait outside in front of the school.  Homeroom Teachers Will Walk Their Students Outside To Meet Up With The Parents/Guardians

Out In Front Of The School. 

You will also find attached a copy of the bell schedule.  If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact the school at 325-4435 or drop me an email, I can be reached at patricia.thorne@nbed.nb.ca .  

Wishing everyone a great long weekend.  Thank you.
