Access to Lakeview Public School
For the foreseeable future OCDSB does not plan to allow teacher or parent access to the school to retrieve items. As more information becomes available, Principal Capitani will keep our school community informed.
Support Fund for Lakeview Families
Dear Lakeview Friends and Families,
We need your help! The Covid-19 pandemic has affected us all in so many ways – as a school, as a community and of course as individuals.
You can help! We have set up a donation fund to help support Lakeview families in need during this time. Our principal, Jennifer Capitani, will work closely with the families in need to ensure the funds are distributed accordingly.
Any excess funds raised will be donated to The Education Foundation of Ottawa which supports all students in the OCDSB.
As we are not a registered charity but rather families helping other families in a very challenging time, we are unable to provide a tax receipt. We thank you for your understanding.
If you have already signed-up for the remaining pizza days and would like to donate those funds please send an email to lakeviewhotlunches@gmail.com to let them know.
If you are finding yourself in need of support at this time, please reach out to our Principal, Jennifer Capitani (jennifer.capitani@ocdsb.ca).
Thank you for your continued support and we wish you and your families well.
Yours in solidarity, Lakeview School Council
Update on Hot Lunches ordering
Given the closure of the school for the 2 weeks following March Break, we have made the following adjustments to the Hot Lunches programs:
- The last pizza and popcorn days from Term 2, which were scheduled for March 25th and 27th, will be rescheduled to when school starts back up. We will update you with the exact dates when more information is available.
- Ordering for Term 3 has been paused for now. Once we know when the school will re-open, we will re-start Hot Lunches ordering for the remainder of Term 3.
- For those who have already placed their Term 3 orders, we will issue refunds once we know how many weeks of Term 3 remain.
If you have any questions, please contact lakeviewhotlunches@gmail.com.

Volunteers needed for Family Movie Night
We are looking for a volunteer to run our Movie Night and a few additional volunteers to help out.
In past years the movie night has been a great community building activity. We take over the gym at Lakeview, families are invited to bring a comfy blanket and some pillows, and we settle in for a fun, family-oriented movie.
If this is your first time volunteering, we have many members of the council who will gladly provide information on how to set up a successful event.
If you are interested, please email Chair@lakeviewschoolcouncil.ca.
Mayfair 2020 – Save the date
Mayfair is happening Saturday, 30 May 2020. More details to follow but please set this day aside for some community fun and excitement!
Volunteers needed for Mayfair
Planning for Mayfair, our biggest activity of the year is in full swing and we need your help!
We have many great Lead Volunteers, but we are in need of some additional help in a few key areas:
-
- Food Organization (coordinate with different vendors/volunteers, organize purchase and pickup/delivery of food/beverages)
- Book Fair (organize set up and tear down, coordinate volunteers)
- Online Auction (organize distribution of items to winners)
- Bike Parade (coordinate volunteers to set up and attend road barricades)
Mayfair cannot happen without these essential lead volunteers.
New volunteers don’t need to start from scratch as the parents who coordinated these events last year can provide all the necessary information.
Interested? Questions? Please email Chair@lakeviewschoolcouncil.ca.
School Lost and Found
The Lost and Found is full. If you are missing an item from your child’s clothing please stop by and have a look in the Lost and Found bin located outside the Kinder – Orange Classroom. Items left unclaimed by March Break will be disposed of.
