About » Registration

Registration

​Welcome to Elementary School!

Please take a look at our School Locator to see which school to register with.
 
When registering a birth certificate will be required as well as your child's BC Care Card, parental BC Care Card and proof of address (i.e. driver's license, utility bill, lease agreement), and a signed Registration Form.
 

Kindergarten Registration

Children born in 2016 are eligible to enter kindergarten in September 2021. Parents, who feel their child is not yet ready for kindergarten, may defer enrollment for one year. Please contact the School Board Office (250) 770-7700 for further information regarding enrollment deferral.
 
Placement in your neighborhood school kindergarten is based on your address and the registration date. The earlier you register, the more likely your child will attend a school close to your home. Register at your neighbourhood school during regular school hours.
