South Shore Regional School Board
School Opening
As we welcome students and staff back to school we recognize this year we are faced with unprecedented high temperatures.
There is currently no province-wide advice to close schools due to the heat and humidity. South Shore Regional Schools will open as scheduled on Friday, September 3rd, 2010 with the exception of Bridgewater Elementary due to construction delays.
Parents and guardians are always advised to use their discretion when deciding to send their children to school. Students will not be participating in strenuous activity during the school day.
We will continue to monitor the temperature and humidity levels in Lunenburg and Queens Counties. Any changes to scheduling will be announced to the public.
For tips on keeping cool, visit the Health Promotion and Protection website HERE or read our Occupational Health and Safety Bulletin on Extreme Heat Conditions HERE. Remember to keep yourself and your children hydrated, avoid strenuous activity and use sun protection.

Public Health Immunization Notice
Public Health Services would like to inform parents of Grade 7 & 8 students of changes to the school vaccine program for the school year 2010-11.
Students who will be eligible to receive vaccine are those students who are currently in Grade 7, as well as those students in Grade 8, who did not receive vaccine last year. The vaccines that will be offered to each group will look differently, as this year’s grade 8 student group would have received some vaccines through the school program during their Grade 4 year.
