Our School
We are a PK-Grade 6 School located in Orono, Ontario.
Balanced Day
A "balanced day" refers to the way that the school day is scheduled. Instead of having the traditional morning and afternoon recess and longer lunch break, the balanced day is divided into three 100 minute sessions separated by two nutrition breaks of 40 to 50 minutes. However, different times can be used as long as the instructional time for each day totals 300 minutes.
Elementary Athletics
The Kawartha Pine Ridge DSB encourages all students to live a healthy active lifestyle. KPR students can participate in a variety of activities ranging from quality Physical Education programming to Intramural school based activities to Interschool Athletic competitions in a number of sports. By nurturing a healthy body we nurture a healthy mind.
The following character attributes are reinforced through school sport at the Kawartha Pine Ridge DSB:
- Respect
