The Week in Review…

Family Skate Night
School Council will be distributing an information flyer in the next few days, but I thought I would let families know in advance of an upcoming Family Skate Night. School Council has reserved the ice at Angus Glen Community Centre, 3990 Major Mackenzie Drive East, from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. on Saturday, December 2nd. As a reminder, approved CSA helmets are strongly encouraged, and families must remain on site directly supervising their children. Please mark your calendars and keep an eye out for the information flyer.

Movie Night
School Council will be hosting a Family Movie Night on Thursday, December 7th. An information flyer will be sent home soon, but we wanted you to know it was upcoming so you could mark your calendars. Hope to see you there!




Toy Drive
Student Council is once again sponsoring a Holiday Toy Drive in support of students from YRDSB schools. This is the third year that they have sponsored the Toy Drive, and each year it gets better and better. This is due to the generosity and compassion of the Bayview Hill families. We thank you in advance for your support of this year’s Holiday Toy Drive. The students will be organizing the event, and have arranged for the period of December 4th to 11th for families to bring a donation to the school. Collection boxes will be delivered to each classroom. We are asking that each family give what they can in order to assist those local families who are struggling to provide for their children. In the spirit of giving, and the joy that it brings to us all, please donate new toys, gift cards, movie passes, sports memorabilia, sports equipment, hair accessories, board games, crafts, markers, books etc. Also, in an effort to ensure there are gifts for children of all ages we ask that families consider donating according to their child’s current grade. For example, if your child is a boy in grade 1 donate something a grade 1 boy would like, or if your child is a grade 8 girl donate something a grade 8 girl would like. Gift cards are a good choice if you are not sure what to give. Donations will be accepted until Monday December 11th.
