Beginning on January 5, our school will be using SafeArrival to report student absences. SafeArrival is designed to make it easier, faster, and more convenient for families to report absences and late arrivals.

With SafeArrival, there’s no need to call the school and leave a message. Instead, you can quickly and securely report your child’s absence in one of three ways:

• Using the SM Home App: Download and install the SM Home app from the Apple App Store or Google Play.

• Online: Visit home.schoolmessenger.ca.

• Phone: Call the toll-free number 1-844-478-2598 and follow the prompts.

Further detailed instructions are available on the OCSB website.

School transportation is organized from the Ottawa Transportation Authority (OSTA).  Information on busing can be found on their website ottawaschoolbus.ca .  Please note information is currently being updated and you may not be able to access information until after August 18th, 2025.  

OCtranspo Presto passes are also provided by OSTA based on your grade and km from school.  The school is not the decision maker or provider of bus passes.  

Students taking OC Transpo can use OCtranspo Bus Planner  to find their routes.
