School Holiday Calendar (2025-2026) (Updated 23 Jan 2025)
- Quick list of school holidays, closures and Professional Development (non-instructional) days for 2025-2026.
- Month-to-Month schedule of events. (Updated regularly)
- The Event Calendar page is password protected. Password can be found in the Weekly Parent Newsletter for WRCA Families.
- For Arts/Athletics Practices and Events: Dates/times are subject to change. Please contact your leaders/coaches for the latest and most accurate information on dates of practices, events, tournaments and cancellations.
- TIMES. Our start and end times are staggered for both the morning and the afternoon to accommodate better traffic flow
- PARKING PEOPLE. Please follow the parking attendant’s directions. Be kind to parking people, they have a tough job.
- DROP-OFF LANE. Do not let students out of the car until you are alongside the Sr. School Drop-off lane.
- BE READY. Have your children ready to go when you arrive.
- PARENTS STAY IN CAR. Parents – please do NOT get out of your vehicle in the drop-off / pickup-lane. Please park first if you need to accompany your child.
- PULL FORWARD. Pull all the way to the end of the drop-off lane, just before the entrance to the parkade. Don’t stop at the first spot. That backs everyone up.
- MERGE. Please “zipper-merge” (alternate), and do not squeeze others out.
- RESERVED PARKING: Please do not park in RESERVED PARKING spots unless it is your reservation. These are parking spots that have been purchased through fundraising initiatives.
- PARKADE. Parents are allowed to park in the parkade in the morning and afternoon. Use the middle parking spaces. Staff park on the outside edge. Go slow, it is a tight parking garage.
- STAY LEFT. Stay on the left of our exit (when turning onto 152 Street) – it’s a single lane. The right lane needs to be accessible to the neighbours as that is their entrance and exit. Do not block their entrance lane.
- TURN ONLY RIGHT. Turn right only onto 152 street (we really get backed up if we have to wait for left turners)
- BE KIND. Please be good neighbors. Turning around on 22nd avenue makes our neighbors unhappy. They sometimes have 70 cars driving their street in the morning. Thanks for being neighborly.
Release Time: Please note that all Jr. School grades (K-5), on full school days, release at 2:50pm. Students are to line up in the designated locations in the morning and parents pick up their children at the end of the day from that location. Parents please do not come into the school at drop off and pickup times. The main lost and found is located in the main building (reception).
