  1. Kindergarten Registration Is Open!

NEW PROCEDURE

If your child was born in 2011 or 2012, registration is available now at www.wrdsb.ca

Once you have completed the online registration, you will be required to come into the school with your child’s documentation (proof of birth) to be copied by office staff.  Appointments will be available between 9:00 am and 3:00 pm during the week of Feb 8th to Feb 12th.  Please call 519-744-4430 to book your appointment.

If your child attended another WRDSB school for JK, you must come to the school to complete a hard copy registration form.   The registration form is also available online for you to download and print.

If your child currently attends Sandhills P.S. in JK, there is no need to register for SK, as this happens automatically at the school level.

Please share this information with your friends and neighbours in our school community.

  1. Ink Cartridge Recyling

Did you know every year 300 million ink cartridges end up in North American landfills? Sandhills is proud to participate in a program offered by Staples Canada.  A drop box for used ink cartridges is located in the foyer of the school for use by our school and community.  The use of this recycling program supports our Eco Schools application.
