Hayao Miyazaki directs this buoyant children's adventure yarn about a young
witch striking out on her own. At her mother's behest, 13-year-old Kiki sets
out on a year-long apprenticeship with her black cat in tow. With a shaky
command of her broom, she ends up in a charming little coastal town that looks
like a cross between the French provincial and San Francisco. Unfortunately,
the local hotels have a strict "no witches" policy and the police
have taken a dim view of her recent aerial mischief-making. She's saved from
the street by a kindly baker's wife, who offers her room and board in exchange
for her delivering by broom the baker's wares. Soon she befriends a
college-aged artist, an old women who fusses over her, and a boy her same age
who is nursing a massive crush. All is well until she wakes up one day and
realizes that she can't make her broom levitate nor can she talk to her cat.
What will Kiki do? <br clear="all">

With it comes the possibility of severe weather, challenging winter driving conditions and, as a result, possible bus and school event cancellations. </p><p>All information regarding cancelled buses in Simcoe County is posted on the Simcoe County Student Transportation Consortium's bus information website at <a href="http://www.simcoecountyschoolbus.ca/" target="_blank"><span style="text-decoration:underline;">www.simcoecountyschoolbus.ca</span></a>.

When buses are cancelled, please remember that schools are still open (unless otherwise noted) for student learning. </p><p>The Consortium, in conjunction with bus operators, will make the decision to cancel school buses before 6 a.m. and as such, will make every effort to post announcements between 6 and 7 a.m. Parents should also note that inclement weather cancellations are effective for the whole day and buses cancelled in the morning will not run at the end of the day.</p><p>You can also subscribe to receive bus delay notifications here: <a href="https://scstc.ca/Subscriptions" target="_blank"><span style="text-decoration:underline;">https://scstc.ca/Subscriptions</span></a> and you can follow the Consortium on Twitter <a href="https://twitter.com/SCSTC_SchoolBus" target="_blank">@SCSTC_SchoolBus</a>.</p> | | | |

It's the parent/guardian's responsibility to meet Junior Kindergarten, Senior Kindergarten and other identified students at the bus stop .The Bus Tag program has been established to assist both the schools and school bus drivers to load these students on the correct afternoon bus and identify they are to be met at their bus stop by a parent/guardian.
