Our final Pizza Lunch of the year is THIS FRIDAY, courtesy of Gledhill School Council. If your child has previously sent in an order form and money, then s/he is all set to enjoy some hot, fresh pizza from Pizza Pizza, along with a cool refreshing drink of milk.

Enjoy!

Daily Announcements – Thursday, May 14th

announcementHighlights from the morning announcements:

1. The permission forms for the TDSB 5K run at Downsview Park are ready for pick up in Room 26. They will also be available when the running club meets this Friday.

2. Folkfest dancers there will be a practice today at lunch at 12:00 in preparation for tonight. Good luck tonight!

We love our bikes!

Gledhill kids had a blast at last week’s bike rally. They had so much fun, they hardly noticed the valuable cycling lessons they were learning: hand signals (left, right and stop), helmet safety, and how to cross at a cross walk, among other things.  And of course, the watermelon after was a huge hit.
A huge thank you to Mark Fowle for organizing and to all the parent volunteers who came out to help.

The coffee was poured and conversation was made with new friends.

Gledhill School Council’s 1st Coffee and Conversation was held Friday morning in the schoolyard. We had such a great time meeting with and listening to what Gledhill parents had to say.

While enjoying the coffee and yummy treats – donated by Gledhill parents and Oak Park Deli – parents also had the opportunity to listen to the “All You Need Is Love” assembly CD. Let’s just say we have a school full of stars!
