Congratulations to our Senior Boys Basketball team, who took part in a tournament at Laval this weekend! We commend their hard work, team spirit, and dedication to sport. Thank you to our players, coaches, and supporters for their ongoing commitment. - Tutoring for Tuition
Tutoring for Tuition is now available. If you feel your child would benefit from extra academic support, please reach out to Mrs. Reid or Mrs. Slade to get started. We’re happy to help students build confidence and strengthen their learning. - SSNL Tournament Guideline
SSNL has a policy that does not permit anyone (including coaches, teacher-sponsors, or athletes) to smoke or vape on site, and they've outlined that any breaches may result in a written report or disciplinary action. We just want to make sure everyone is aware of these guidelines so our teams and school are never put in a difficult position. Thank you for your continued support and for helping us follow SSNL’s procedures. - Drama Practices
Drama practice will continue until Christmas for senior students from 3-4 on Mondays and for juniors from 3-4 on Tuesdays. Scripts cost $25.00. Please pass along your money at your next practice and pick up your scripts. - Christmas Talent Show

Our Christmas Talent Show will tentatively take place on Wednesday, December 17, at 7pm. It will be a new and wonderful way to kick off the holidays. Come out and share in the Christmas spirit with your children as they take to the stage to show off their talent to create some Christmas cheer! - Kids Eat Smart Breakfast Program

This year, we have introduced an updated Code of Conduct. Please make sure you review this with your child(ren): Code of Conduct - Absence / Sign-In / Sign-Out (Family)
Attendance is critical for academic and social success, as it ensures that students are actively engaged and able to fully benefit from the educational opportunities we provide. Please make sure that you sign your child in and out when arriving late or leaving early. - Extra Curricular Schedule
Baccalieu Collegiate offers extracurricular activities, including sports, drama, tutoring/study hall, DND, and more! Please check our Calendar and our Facebook page for schedules. - School Allergies
Please be aware that certain foods are prohibited at school due to severe allergies. We have students who may require an EpiPen if exposed to the listed allergens. - Cannabis and Smoke Free Policy
Please note Baccalieu Collegiate and the District support a Tobacco, Cannabis, Smoke and Smokeless Free Policy. This policy also prohibits clothing that promotes these products. District Policy Document - Dirtbikes & ATVs
We’ve received several concerns from community members about students driving dirt bikes and ATVs recklessly. We ask parents/guardians to take time to speak with your child(ren) about the importance of road safety and the responsible use of these machines. Safe operation protects not only our students but also everyone in the community. This is not only a safety concern, but a legal one as well. - Doorways
Doorways School Counselling Program is returning to Baccalieu Collegiate. They have increased their visits to be weekly. Please see their letter, which discusses the consent to treatment for counsellors. School DoorWays Program Letter - Lost & Found
