We will have staff supervision in this area so parents can leave once they have dropped students off.

It is also a very good idea to <strong>pack extra socks, and pants<\/strong> for those times when students may need a change of clothes.&nbsp; We are encouraging families to have your children leave an umbrella at school as well as extra clothes &#8211; students have personal coat hooks and cubbies to keep umbrellas and extra clothes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><u>QE Code of Conduct<\/u><\/strong> &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/newwestschools.ca\/qee\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2026\/10\/Queen-Elizabeth-Elementary-School-Code-of-Conduct-2026-no-logo.pdf\">link<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><u>QE Learning Plan<\/u><\/strong> &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/newwestschools.ca\/qee\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2026\/10\/QE-SGP-2026-2027-final.pdf\">link<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><u>November<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">2 <strong>&#8211;<\/strong> PAC Just Cakes Fundraiser begins<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">9 \u2013 Last Day to order Just Cake \u2013 Cake Jars \u2013 PAC fundraiser<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">11 \u2013 Stat Holiday \u2013 Remembrance Day \u2013 no school<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">12 \u2013 Individual Photo \u2013 Re-take Day<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">13 \u2013 Ordering opens for Pizza Hot Lunch<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">20 \u2013 Just Cake \u2013 delivery day<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">22 \u2013 Last day to order Nov.
