KINDERGARTEN REGISTRATION We are accepting registrations for Kindergarten students for the 2010 - 2011 school year. We offer a terrific program in a great school. If your child will be five by December 31, 2010, he/she is eligible to attend Kindergarten in the fall of 2010. Please call the office at 523-3000 to get information on how to register your child for the fall (September 2010) term. For our current Jack MacKenzie parents, if you know of a family in the neighbourhood with a child of kindergarten age and no siblings attending Jack MacKenzie School, we would appreciate it if you would pass this information on to that family. Just a reminder that our transportation boundaries changed last year and students north of Arens Road will not be transported to Jack MacKenzie School unless an older sibling has been grandfathered prior to this year. All students are welcome to attend Jack MacKenzie School but if they live outside our transportation boundaries the family must provide transportation.
