A HUGE thank you to Gledhill Dad, DJ Rhino, for donating his time, his lights and his tunes for our kids today. We saw some amazing moves on the dance floor!

Thank you also to our parent volunteers and our dedicated team of parent organizers.

If you still have last minute donations that didn’t make it in to the school today –  don’t worry! They can be brought in on Monday.

The online system will also remain active over the weekend if you’d like to submit donations at www.sagoto.com/gsc/dance

Highlights from this morning’s announcements:


Read first: “I would like to acknowledge that this school is situated upon traditional territories. The territories include the Wendat, Anishinabek Nation, the Haudenosaunee Confederacy, the Mississaugas of Scugog, Hiawatha, Alderville First Nation and the Métis Nation. The treaty that was signed for this particular parcel of land is collectively referred to as the Williams Treaties of 1923 and applies to lands east of Woodbine Avenue. I also recognize the enduring presence of Aboriginal peoples on this land.
