Dog on the School Yard – Lunch Recess on Friday October 26, 2018

Posted on by Ventura Park P.S.

Good afternoon Awesome VPPS Parents and Guardians!

Today at around 1:30 pm, a loose dog was running around on the VPPS school yard, during the last 10 minutes of our Lunch Recess.  While this type of situation can create fear and anxiety among students and staff, no one was hurt during the dog’s unannounced visit to our fabulous school!

Within a few minutes, the dog’s owner was able to retrieve the dog and return the dog to it’s home.

As always, safety and well-being remain our top priority.  If you have any further concerns, please contact me directly at VPPS by phone 905.707.6488 or email: arin.otis@yrdsb.ca

Have a safe weekend!
