You are an incredible blessing to Nanaimo Christian School. You’re involved in education in meaningful ways at home, on campus and within our community of school families. We appreciate all you are and do!

​

Connect with other parents

Stop by and get connected at our new parent community cottages -- between Building A (Grade K-2 building) and Holland Road. One cottage is the office space for the school's new Parent Community Coordinator, Karen Richardson. The other cottage -- a cozy space with a couch, chairs, coffee maker and tea kettle -- is a hub for our parent community at NCS.

​

Groups now meeting in the cottages:

• Drop-in coffee group -- Fridays after a.m. drop off

• Prayer groups -- Thursdays after a.m. drop off & before p.m. pick up

• Parents of children with special needs support group -- Mondays before p.m. pick up

• Hiking group (meet at trail TBD) -- Wednesdays after a.m. drop off
