CUPE728 has some amazing Culinary Assistants (Formally: Cafeteria Assistant I & II)!
They have such an important role in our high schools. They help in training students enrolled in food handling and preparation courses, taking care of the kitchen facilities, preparation of food served in the cafeterias and much, much more. On January 16, we recognize all their hard work and dedication to their role.
What is Braille?
We have amazing Bus Drivers! February 22nd is Bus Driver Appreciation day with CUPE728 and Surrey Schools. We thank all our drivers today and everyday for their dedication in the safety of the students, staff and our community.
Whether your in Trades or Non-Trades, CUPE728 wants to make sure that all of our Maintenance Workers know they are highly valued and appreciated. On the surface, maintenance work may seem like a behind the scenes kind of business. In reality, it is essential to the functioning of our schools. Maintenance workers ensure our entire community has access to safe and functioning schools. On the first Friday of March, we dedicate that day to all the Maintenance Workers in Surrey Schools. Without them, our schools would not function. Thank you!
World Plumbing Day recognizes the critical link between health and plumbing facilities. Indeed, the bathroom plays a significant role in maintaining our health all around the world. Everybody understands the role of sanitized, plumbing solutions to cut germs in their paths.
Just how many germs live in your bathroom is unclear, but it’s the place where you can find some of the most harmful bacteria, such as bacillus, gram-negative rods, cocci, and gram-positive rods. These different bacteria types are harmful to the human population and can cause a variety of health concerns such, skin infections and pneumonia. Some types are also resistant to antibiotics, which brings a completely new meaning to World Plumbing Day.
Indeed, good plumbing is not just a nice thing to have to keep your bathroom looking pretty. It’s the safest and quickest way to maintain and protect your health.
