Indoor Shoes

The Chinese Academy would like to remind students to bring indoor shoes to maintain a clean campus building. Let’s all do our part to keep the campus buildings clean. Thank you for your cooperation.

Students Not Permitted to Bring Personal Valuable Items to School

A reminder that students are to keep all valuable personal belongings at home. They are not permitted to bring any of these items to school or to share with their classmates. TCA cannot be held responsible for any breakage or loss of any personal items including phones, money, toys and so forth. This practice acts as a distraction to the overall teaching and learning environment.

No Student Entry Zones

A reminder that students are only permitted to enter their own classroom at any time when a teacher is present. Students can access the supervised hallways & student washrooms during recess. Students can also access the SJAM gymnasium during recess time when available & supervised. Students cannot access any restricted areas in either John G. Diefenbaker or Sir John A Macdonald school at any time. At Diefenbaker, this includes:

  1. The hallway between the Main Gymnasium, teacher washrooms/ staff room and cafeteria entrance
  2. The basement area
  3. The second-floor library area

This permits TCA to provide the safest and most secure building for our entire community during the entire school day.

Student Absence

A reminder to parents and students that in the event of illness or any other unavoidable events leading to an absence, it is essential to notify both your child’s teacher via email. It is preferred that you first email your child’s teacher and subsequently forward the message to the TCA office email.
