Getting Ready for Back to School

Now that the long weekend is behind us it’s time to start thinking about getting our kids ready to return to school (Tuesday September 3rd).

As you start preparing for lunches, indoor shoes and other miscellaneous items that could be misplaced it’s a good time to think about ordering labels for your lunch containers, water bottles, hoodies, jackets, backpacks, shoes and anything else that you can add a label to.

Did you know that you can support the school council by ordering your labels through Oliver’s Labels?  It’s a win-win situation, you get to keep track of your child’s stuff (hopefully reducing lost items) and a portion of the purchase will support the school council.  If you’re interested take a look at the link below:

Big Family Fest “Thank yous”

Last Friday we had amazing weather and a fantastic turnout to Gledhill’s Annual Family Fest. Each year the event raises valuable funds for the school council supported programs and initiatives including Drama with Jeff, Scientists in School and Skate Day.

We’d like to say a few important thank yous:

THANK YOU to all the local businesses who contributed to the day including Davidson’s valu-mart who donated all the food for the BBQ, Kevin Smith for donating the loot bag contents, the Fire Station on Woodbine for visiting with their truck and Toronto Water for sending the water truck.

THANK YOU to all the familes who attended the event and supported this important fundraiser.

THANK YOU to Andrea A and her team of parent volunteers who helped set up, man the stations and clean up afterwards.

THANK YOU to everyone who baked and cooked for the food tables.

And finally, a HUGE THANK YOU to Chantal, Marni, Scarlett and Melissa who have worked so hard to organize and run many of our fundraisers over the last few years!

Family Fest is TOMORROW after school!

A few notes ahead of tomorrow’s exciting event:

  1. We are still in need of volunteers for a few one hour shifts AND finger foods for our pot luck food table. Please check out the Sign Up site to see where help is needed and to indicate what food you can bring. Any volulnteer questions can be directed to gledhillvolunteer@gmail.com
  2. All food and baking donations can be dropped off at the table in front of the office tomorrow morning or after school at Family Fest.
  3. BEAT THE LINE UPS – Unless it is raining, Family Fest tickets and Wristbands will be sold in the school yard tomorrow before school, starting at 8:20 am. (Note: All Wristbands and tickets are non-refundable, even in the case of event cancellation due to rain)
