Parents Party!- Ticket Details & Updated Location

Hello Parent Community!

Please join Gledhill Parents on Saturday, October 28th for a fantastic community builder for Gledhill parents!

Due to an error on the part of the Royal Canadian Legion, we have had to find an alternate venue. We are thrilled to now be hosting this event at The Don on Danforth (15 Chisholm Avenue). All other details that were announced will remain the same. A huge thanks to co-chair, Kristen Grinyer, for so quickly finding alternate space.

There will be a raffle, a 50/50 draw, a prize for best costume, a photo booth and dancing (if you want!)! Costumes are encouraged, but not mandatory. There will be light snacks and a cash bar. Doors open at 8 p.m. This is a 19+ event (ie: NO children). 

Tickets are $15 in advance and $20 at the door.

Tickets are going fast. How do you get yours?! Follow the steps below.

STEP ONE: Please start by filling out this form. Feel free to bring your friends and Gledhill past-parents!

Pizza Lunches are back!

Gledhill School Council is excited to offer Pizza Lunch days for all students who wish to participate (Kindergarten – Grade 5).  These were a big hit last year and we’re happy to be offering it again! 

Our next Pizza Lunch day is Friday, Oct 27.  Here are the details:

–       Pizza is supplied by Pizza Pizza
–       Your choice of cheese, pepperoni, dairy-free cheese and cheese with gluten-free crust
–       $3 per slice (up to three slices per student may be ordered)
–       Orders are placed through SchoolCash Online (you should have received an email directly from SchoolCash Online so check your junk mail if you cannot find it; alternatively, you can register/sign in here: https://tdsb.schoolcashonline.com)
–       Order Deadline:  Thursday, Oct 19, 2023

Kindly note that pizza orders cannot be changed once they have been placed, and there are no refunds for students who miss their lunch or who are absent on Pizza Lunch day.  Be sure to place your order in advance as pizza will NOT be available for sale on the day of the Pizza Lunch. 

Please continue to send snacks and drinks with your student(s) on these days, as only pizza will be offered for those who have placed an order.

All pizza orders contribute to Gledhill School Council’s fundraising efforts – thank you for supporting Gledhill and our students!
