Heath is one of five pilot schools in the City of Delta’s new School Neighbourhood Active Travel Planning (SNAP) Program.

Active travel helps kids arrive alert and ready to learn, builds healthy habits and independence, and means less traffic around the school.
You can get involved in two ways,
Take the survey. Tell us how your family gets to school and where you have safety concerns: letstalk.delta.ca/SNAP. The survey is open until Friday, November 20 and does not collect names or addresses.
Join a walkabout.

PAC Meeting – Nov 18th at 6 pm
All parents and caregivers are welcome to join our PAC meeting on Wednesday, Nov 18th.
What is the PAC? YOU ARE! Any parent/guardian of a child attending the school is part of the PAC (Parent Advisory Committee). The PAC listens to the concerns and values of families in our school community and assists with bridging any gaps between families and the school, district, or province; including funding for many classroom and school items the provincial government does not allocate funds, or enough funds, for.
Why do we fundraise? The PAC listens to the needs of the school & parent community raising funds to subsidize many of the things we have and do, to give our children the best possible experience in their elementary school years. The provincial government funding objective is “to allocate operating funding so that students in all districts have an equal opportunity to receive a quality education”. This is a standard guideline to fund the basics for all schools, in all districts. However, one size doesn’t fit all. These funds don’t include any ‘nice to have’ or do things. Our fundraisers add those fun things for the enjoyment & memories of our students and families
What are the funds used for?
- Field trips
- Technology
- Library
- Performances
- And much, much more!
How can I get involved?
There are many opportunities such as:
- attend PAC meetings
- attend DPAC meetings as a DPAC representative (District PAC)
- help out and volunteer

Learning conferences are an important opportunity for us to connect and work together to support your child’s learning and growth.
We encourage every family to sign up for a learning conference and make time to attend via parent connect. These are three-way conferences involving the student, parent/guardian, and teacher.

Permanent Daylight Saving Time – Safety information
Earlier this year, British Columbia adopted permanent daylight saving time, with the final clockchange taking place on March 8, 2026. As a result, the province now observes Pacific Time(PCT) year-round, eliminating the twice-yearly switch between Pacific Standard Time (PST) andPacific Daylight Time (PDT). During parts of the winter, particularly between late November and early February, many children will travel to school before sunrise.
Please help your child stay safe by reminding them to:
- Wear reflective or bright clothing and carry a flashlight when travelling in the dark.
- Use sidewalks, well-lit routes and designated crosswalks.
- Look both ways, watch for traffic and ensure vehicles have come to a complete stop before crossing.
For families driving to school:
- Drive slowly and use extra caution near the school, crosswalks and intersections.
- Stop completely at stop signs and crosswalks.
- Avoid distractions, put away cellphones and check carefully for pedestrians before turning or moving.

Emergency Preparedness Fee
In 2024, the district introduced an annual Emergency Preparedness Fee of $10 per student. This fee aims to cover the maintenance and replenishment of emergency provisions, including food, water, sanitation and first aid items, to help care for students in case of a large-scale incident such as an earthquake. Last year’s Emergency Preparedness Fee was used to bolster emergency food and water supplies and enabled us to reach our goal of ensuring that schools across the district now have a three-day supply of both. It also enabled the district to provide sanitation carts containing portable toilets, privacy shelters, garbage and bio-hazard bags, sanitation supplies, and personal protection equipment to all schools. This year’s $10 Emergency Preparedness Fee will be used to replace water reserves and first aid items that are about to expire, and to purchase additional sanitation supplies.
Please send $10 by cash or a cheque (made payable to the name of your child’s school) to the school office . If your family requires financial support in relation to this fee, please contact the school office. Discretion will be maintained. Thank you for your support of this important initiative.
On Friday October 30th, students (who want to) are welcome to come to school dressed in their Halloween Costume. Students will have a chance to share with their classroom friends what they are wearing. Our school Halloween parade will take place on Friday, October 30th at 9:00 a.m. Families are welcome to join us in the gym (please sit on the stage).
Students will want to bring an extra set of clothes to change into prior to recess. Please be reminded that costumes:
- should not be too scary
- should be age appropriate that promote illegal activities, drugs/alcohol, or could be offensive or perpetuate a stereotype of someone’s culture, gender, heritage, or religion are not ok for school
- must be safe & comfortable. Students must be able to sit, walk, breathe, see and hear. Anything that limits vision or restricts movement can lead to falling & other injuries. That’s no fun on Halloween!
Also:toy weapons should be kept at home
- not all students like to dress up (and that’s ok, too!)
Students will be given the opportunity and are encouraged to change out of their costumes prior to recess. This will ensure that costumes are kept safe and intact for trick or treating later that night.

Parents are invited to: Saleema Noon Parent Session – Oct 19th via zoom
Body Science Boot Camp for Parents – Oct 19 zoom session 6:30 p.m. (Zoom link will be emailed home morning of Oct 19)
Your child is growing up in a world that looks very different from the one many of us grew up in. Questions about bodies, puberty, consent, relationships and online influences are coming earlier than ever—and many parents worry about saying too much, not enough, or the wrong thing entirely.
If you’ve ever found yourself wondering, “Where do I even start?”, you’re not alone.
Using humour, science and plenty of practical examples, Saleema Noon Sexual Health Educators will show you how to have open, age-appropriate conversations that help your child stay informed, confident and safe.
In this interactive workshop, you’ll learn:
- Why conversations about bodies should start earlier than most parents think
- Simple strategies to help reduce the risk of child sexual abuse
- What kids need to know at different ages and stages of development
- Age-appropriate language and scripts you can start using at home right away
- How to become your child’s go-to source for honest, accurate information
- How to create a family culture where questions are welcomed and conversations feel natural
- What to say when your child asks a question that catches you completely off guard
- What students learn in Saleema Noon Body Science workshops—and how you can reinforce those messages at home
You’ll leave with practical tools, increased confidence and a clearer understanding of how to support your child through every stage of growing up.
The zoom link will be emailed home on Monday, Oct 19th to families.
