Every October, Gledhill hosts a Halloween Parade. Students and teachers alike can show their wild side to all of their friends and colleagues on this special day. We were fortunate that the rain held off long enough for the parade to be held outside this year. A special thanks to Principal McLachlan, who kindly provided the following pictures of the Halloween parade a couple of weeks ago.

Gledhill’s Library will be hosting the annual Book Fair from November 11th to 15th. The Fair provides an opportunity for students and others to purchase books and other reading-related materials at reasonable prices. The Fair will be open from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Thursday. On Friday morning, it will be open during Parent/Teacher interviews.
Students will have an opportunity to visit the Fair during class time and parents are welcome to come out after school or on Friday morning. You may also support us by providing your children with money for purchases or by volunteering your time to help in the Fair.
Such support will be appreciated, as the money raised will go towards purchasing more library resources and promoting literacy in our school.

The Gledhill Running Club started this week.
We have many participants, students as well as family members. Primary students (grades 1 to 3) run on Tuesday morning and the Juniors (grades 4 to 6) run on Thursdays.
We meet at the Terry Fox doors at 7:45am … please feel free to join us.
We know that many families have mentioned that not all of the information from the daily announcements makes it home, so as a new feature we will be posting the key daily announcements here on this site. To get us started, here are the announcements for Thursday Nov. 7.
1. Kids are encouraged to wear red and black for Remembrance Day next Monday.
2. The Royal Canadian Legion Remembrance Day Poster and Poetry contest is back. Submissions are due to Mrs Chitayat by Nov 12. Students need to ask their teacher for a permission form.

Our school trustee, Sheila Cary Meagher, shared information about a consultation survey being conducted by the Ontario Ministry of Education. The survey, “Building the Next Phase in Ontario’s Education Strategy – Great to Excellent”, is an opportunity for parents to provide input as the government moves forward in their plans for public education in Ontario. To complete the survey please follow this link – http://www.edu.gov.on.ca/eng/about/survey.html
We have collected many wonderful items for the Gledhill SACA Silent Auction on November 22! If you would like to contribute but need some ideas, perhaps some of these might spark your imagination:
Should you require a letter of introduction from Gledhill about the auction, please contact me and I will provide that to you. ( rourkenassif@sympatico.ca ).
