At its October meeting, the School Board confirmed our start and end-of-year dates for 2024.

In addition to these dates, the Ministry of Education has gazetted two Curriculum Implementation Days in 2024 for all schools. These dates must be taken during blocks of time in Terms 2 and 4. We are in consultation with the other schools in the North West Cluster to identify dates when our combined staff could work together to share PLD during these days and will confirm them with you as soon as we can.

These dates will not extend the length of the school year beyond the dates listed below.
