Skate Day FAQs

Next Thursday, March 7th is Gledhill Skate Day for grades 1-5.

Thank you to parents who have already returned their Skate Borrowing forms and Skate Day permission forms.

Yesterday, a hot shot team of parents pre-fitted 57 kids with skates and helmets to borrow on Skate Day.

If your child still needs to borrow skates and/or helmet on Skate Day – no problem- we will still have extra equipment for borrowing at the arena on the day of.

Each class will need 3-4 parents to walk with the children and teacher to Ted Reeve and help with skate tying. Please indicate your desire to volunteer directly to your child’s teacher.

Not sure whether your child’s class is scheduled to skate in the AM or PM session? Or, if you have any other Skate Day questions, please email thegledhillguardian@gmail.com
