Surveillance System

Marine Drive Academy uses a video surveillance system as part of our continued efforts to support a safe, positive and effective learning environment. We recognize that the images recorded by this video surveillance system are personal information and, as with all other personal information, we take steps to balance privacy rights with safety and security concerns. The school has the legal authority to collect this personal information under Section 24 of Nova Scotia's Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act. Only designated staff has access to our video surveillance equipment and such access is restricted as required by law. The system is used to enhance school safety and to deter or take action in response to unlawful behaviours.

Cafeteria Orders

If there is a snow day or 2-hour delay opening and you have placed a cafeteria order for your child , you will be issued a credit on your account. So, the next time you order it should be showing on your account. Also, if your child is out sick a day and you have placed an order you can go onto the Chartwells website at cafezone.ca for that morning and request a credit or email me at tara.lucas@compass-canada.com and I can put in for a credit for you.
