Safe Arrival Program
The Safe Arrival program ensures that all students arrive safely to school every day.
If your child will not be in school or is going to be late, it is important to contact the Safe Arrival Program. We will have two options for you to use - phone and email.
If your child is late, they need to report to the office before heading to their classroom.
If your child is not in the classroom by 9 am and no message has been left with the safe arrivals program, you will be contacted to ensure that everything is okay and that your child is safe.

Contact the office at 604-713-5464, then press 1 and enter the two-digit school code. Queen Mary’s School code is 67. You may call or email anytime, 24 hours a day. Messages are checked each morning.
