Take Your Kids to Work Day! 2018

TOKTW Day Webpage

Take Our Kids to Work Day is an annual event held across Canada where Grade 9 students have the opportunity to go to work with their parent/guardian or a volunteer host to learn about their workplace and occupation.  This year it will be held on Wednesday, November 14, 2018. 

Students may go to work with a parent/guardian or any other adult who is acceptable to the parent/guardian and who is willing to act as a volunteer host. However, if your child is going with a volunteer host, please ensure that the appropriate extra section of the permission form is also completed. It should be noted that we are unable to arrange for volunteer hosts for your child.

While at the work placement, students are covered under the school board’s liability insurance. For more information, see the attached letter from our Director, Mr. Chris Roehrig

Fully completed and signed permission forms are due at least two days prior to the event. Please note that students who choose not to participate are expected to be in school on Take Our Kids to Work Day.

There will be a TOKTW Day assembly for all grade 9 homerooms in November to discuss health and safety and the purpose of the day,

 If you wish further information, please visit either the Learning Partnership website or contact our school's Cooperative Education Office.
