“Spring” Forward

It is a hopeful sign that winter may be behind us as clocks will “Spring” forward one hour on Sunday, March 9th at 2:00am as daylight savings time begins.  This means that clocks will move forward form 2:00am to 3:00am.  Although we may be losing one hour of sleep this weekend we will be gaining one our daylight.

New Lockdown Protocol (From the Richmond School District)

The Richmond School District is currently in the process of updating its emergency procedures by implementing a new Lockdown Protocol for all 48 district schools and administrative buildings. This comprehensive review is being undertaken as part of ongoing efforts to provide safe learning environments for our students and staff. School staffs have received in-service on these new protocols and students are being familiarized with the new Lockdown Protocol procedures, dealing with both in-school and neighbourhood emergency situations, through school wide drills. The Richmond School District is working in collaboration with the Richmond RCMP and the City of Richmond Fire Rescue Department to ensure that our Lockdown Protocol procedures are in-line with those of our emergency responders.
