Winter Walk Day February 1st!
The journey outside is a safe and healthy choice for students and parents. Join the walk and provide your kids with the jumpstart they need to perform better in the classroom! Let’s encourage, educate, and learn together!
Check out some of these ideas Bears:
- All students can participate in Winter Walk Day! Bussed students walk to their bus stop. Families who need to drive can park five minutes away and walk the rest of the way (find your Drive to 5 Maps here: Blessed Sacrament Parking Map).
- Use an app on your phone or watch to see how many steps or kilometers you walk. You might be surprised at how far you can go!
- Dress for the weather! Canadian winters can be cold and the sidewalks and paths can be slippery. Make sure to bundle up and walk with caution.
- Get your whole family involved! It is always more fun to walk with people
- Walking outside in cold air can reduce stress, increase serotonin (the happiness hormone), and even though the action may be slower, walking in snow leads to greater heart conditioning and increased endurance over time.
On Wednesday February 1, we will celebrate this day as a school community:
- Teachers will be taking students outside for a winter walk, dress for the weather!
- Too far away to walk to school? Get dropped off a block or two away from school and walk the rest of the way if you can.
- Are you a bus student? Walk the perimeter of the playground zone at recess for some exercise!
Will you be walking on Winter Walk Day?

Student Drop Off and Pick Up Reminder
Dear Blessed Sacrament Community,
Just a friendly reminder that parents/guardians are to use the roundabout to drop students off in the morning and for pick up after school.
Please do not pull in front of the school, that is for school busses ONLY!
If you are looking for a more efficient way to drop off your children, please refer to the Blessed Sacrament Parking Map below!
Thank you,
Mr. Rose
