End of Day Pick Up

If you have to pick up your child(ren) between 3:10 and 3:30, we ask that you communicate this with your child(ren)'s teacher or the office, prior to 3:10. With end of day routines, it is difficult to communicate pick-ups with the classroom teacher between 3:10 and 3:30.

At dismissal, we also ask that cars wait for the buses to leave prior to exiting the parking. This will help relieve congestion at our exits and ensure the safety of our students and entire LPS community. We also kindly ask families to exit the parking lot using the exit closest to Rutledge Road. Thank you for your support in keeping our Lions safe.

Register Your Child Now in LDSB

Do you have a child ready to start Kindergarten this September? If your child is four- or five-years-old by the end of December (2026), now is the time to register. Limestone offers Kindergarten in both English and French Immersion—where 85% of instruction is in French—plus a strong focus on the core skills of reading, writing, and math. With greater choice in schools and future programming, your child can discover a sense of belonging, while learning the knowledge and skills they need to succeed. For more information, please visit limestone.on.ca/kindergarten.

In Limestone, students may be permitted to attend any school within the board when there is available student space, upon submission and approval of the proper application. Please note only one application per student can be processed; please do not submit more than one application for multiple school locations. If multiple applications are submitted, families will be contacted to select which school application they would like processed, and all other applications will be removed from the system.

The board is not responsible for the provision of any transportation for students outside of their regular school boundary area. This applies to both students within Limestone’s geographic boundaries (out of boundary), and students who live outside of those boundaries (out of district). 

To find the name and location of your in-boundary or home school(s), enter the student’s home address into Tri-Board's Locate A School tool.

 

LPS Talize Fundraiser

We are excited to announce a new fundraiser happening from now until the end of May 2026! We have partnered with Talize Kingston to raise money for student activities. For those who are not familiar with Talize, they are a Canadian-owned and operated for-profit thrift retailer with an outlet in Kingston's West End (near Reid's Dairy).  

How do we make money? Talize weighs donations that are made in support of LPS and will give us 20 cents per pound of clothing and housewares, and 10 cents per pound of media (books, CDs etc.). Donations must be given to an attendant at the donation centre during open hours (around the right side of the building) and you must mention that it is in support of Loughborough Public School's fundraiser.

See the flyers below for more information, including what items are accepted and what are not.

Piano Lessons at LPS

Carolyn Schaub, who has been teaching piano at LPS and in the region since 2006, will be offering piano lessons at LPS again this year during the school day. Her goal is to instill the love of making music. Her teaching philosophy and the curricula she uses, can be found at www.carolynscreative.com.  The cost is $27.25 per lesson or $98.10 per month for the school year.  To reserve a piano spot or ask questions please emailcmschaub@sympatico.ca or call (613)376-6207.


Hot Lunch

Loughborough PS offers the option to order hot lunch 3 days a week. New this year, we will have pizza on Tuesdays from Mike’s Pizza, right here in Sydenham. Wednesdays will be Subway and Mike's Pizza Mac and Cheese, and Thursdays will be Gino’s Chicken Fingers & Fries.  Orders are due the Sunday prior to the week, at midnight.  Place your order at https://www.school-day.com


Late or Cancelled Buses

At times, our school buses are cancelled or late to pick up students in the morning or late to school to pick up students at the end of the day. If your child’s bus is late, please visit www.triboard.ca and click on Delays and Cancellations to check on the status of your child’s bus. As well, you can download the BusPlanner Delays app on your phone. Once you have downloaded the app, you can register to receive bus updates for Loughborough Public School. Once you are registered, you will receive notifications regarding your child(ren)'s bus status if they are delayed or cancelled.
