Welcome to all new PVNC OECTA members and welcome back to all occasional and permanent members.

We are entering a new school year with our provincial and local contract expiring on August 31, 2026. Please make sure you are signed up to get local and provincial updates. Please contact the Unit Office if you are not receiving OECTA emails!

Beginning Teacher Councillor:

Are you a beginning permanent teacher in your first 5 years? Want to get involved with your Association? The Unit Executive appoints a permanent teacher in their first five years of their teaching career to serve each year as a non-voting member of the Executive. Please click on the attachment for more information.

OECTA Involvement:
 
We are always looking for members who are interested in getting involved with our Association. There are lots of opportunities to get involved. Please click on the attachment for more information.

PD Subsidy:

NEW! We increased the local OECTA PVNC PD Subsidy to $500 per calendar year! Our PD Subsidy is available if you are interested in taking a conference or a course. Please make sure to follow the submission instructions and submit your application at least 2 weeks prior the start date. 

We will soon be starting our pizza visits again to your school/location. We are looking forward to being able to see all our members again. We will be in contact soon with Staff Reps to set up a meeting date.

We would like to wish you all a successful start to the 2025-26 school year. We look forward to seeing you in person during our school visits.

Don’t let little things become big things! We are here to help. As always, all OECTA members can contact Bart or Andy at any time with any questions or concerns.
