Lost and Found:

Our Lost and Found is currently overflowing with clothing and other items that have been left behind. If your child is missing anything, we encourage you to stop by and take a look before the end of the school year. Thank you!

Walk for Truth and Reconciliation – September 29

The school district’s Third Annual Walk for Truth and Reconciliation will take place on Tuesday, September 29. This event brings students and staff together in a meaningful way to honour the legacy of Residential School survivors and raise awareness about the importance of Reconciliation in Canada. The main walk and ceremony will take place at South Delta Secondary School (SDSS) in Tsawwassen. As in previous years, all Delta schools and work sites will participate by walking in their own communities before tuning in to the live-streamed ceremony.

This year, students and staff can purchase hoodies, T-shirts, toques, and hats featuring a unique logo designed by a South Delta Secondary student. Items can be ordered here.  All orders must be placed by June 30, 2026.

Electric Scooters and E-Bikes
As the warmer weather approaches, students will have more opportunities to engage in bike- and scooter-related activities like commuting to school. Please find below a reminder of the provincial regulations regarding electric kick scooters and electric bikes (e-bikes).
Electric kick scooters should not be used by students travelling to school or while on the school grounds.
Despite their popularity in our province, electric kick scooters remain illegal for use on public roads, bike lanes, and sidewalks across most of B.C., except in a handful of communities that are taking part in a pilot program to test the use of them. The City of Delta is not part of the pilot program. Even in the pilot program cities, it is illegal for a person under 16 years of age to operate an electric kick scooter and may result in a fine. Click here for more information.
E-Bikes: In B.C., it is illegal for students under 14 years of age to ride e-bikes. Students can operate light e-bikes at age 14 and standard e-bikes at 16. Parents or guardians of students below the minimum age must not knowingly permit them to ride an e-bike. For more information, including the definitions of a light e-bike and a standard e-bike, please click here.
