Please Note:

  • We do not close the school unless we feel that conditions are too dangerous for driving.
  • If the school is closed, it will be broadcasted on CKNW (980 AM) by approximately 7:00 a.m.
  • Also, the outgoing message on the school’s telephone answering system will be changed at approximately the same time (7:00 a.m.) as well as the school’s website (www.ourladyofmercy.ca) will be updated to inform parents in the event of a school closure.
  • There will be no broadcast if the school is open.
  • If it begins to snow while school is in session, it is the parents’ decision whether or not to pick up their children early.
  • If conditions are bad where you live, please make your own decision whether or not to bring your child to school.
  • Remember that the weather during the winter can change at any time, so all families should have emergency arrangements in place in case school has to close.
