On Sunday November 20th Collegiate took part in the annual St. Catharines Santa Claus parade.  Students started the day with a school BBQ then bundled up, played music and handed out cookies along the route. Great job Saints! 

Today, Collegiate held a lockdown drill as part of our Safe Schools plan. Lockdown drills are held twice a year, in order to practice procedures in the event of an actual emergency.
Today's drill went very well and demonstrated that staff and students are able to quickly implement the procedures.
