Due to the anticipated freezing rain and the risk of black ice, all school bus and van transportation services have been cancelled Friday January 26. This includes both morning and afternoon runs. Be safe out there!
Thank you @GUOottawa for the Garlic Workshop! We got our garlic cloves planted today so they will be ready to harvest at the end of the year. 🧄🌿 #ocsbOutdoors @FJMcDonaldOCSB
