Availability (upon Principal approval and custodial availability)
DSB1's facilities are available for rent from the beginning of October until the last week of June each year. While schools have exclusive use of their space from 7am until 5pm, Monday through Friday, most facilities are available for Community Use from 5pm until 10pm, Monday to Friday, and from 7am until 10pm, Saturday and Sunday.
*Please note that DSB1 does not rent facilities for private events, such as birthday parties or receptions.
Due to maintenance and cleaning schedules, DSB1 facilities are unavailable for use during Summer Break, Christmas Break, March Break, Professional Activity Days and statutory holidays.
Most applications will be processed on a first-come, first-serve basis, however, on an occasion where more than one community group is requesting the same space at the same time, priority will be given to not-for-profit, youth organizations.
