Information about H1N1 influenza
We understand there is concern in the community about the H1N1 flu virus, a strain of influenza. We continue to monitor the situation very carefully. Our Board remains in regular contact with Ottawa Public Health and the Public Health Agency of Canada. We work closely with all of our community partners to ensure the safest and most consistent approach to health concerns. Health bulletins and letters of information are being shared on a regular basis with all of our schools.
