The Week in Review…



 
On Monday, October 30th, the Kindergarten classes visited Whittamore’s Farm. They learned about pumpkins, went on a wagon ride and walked through a corn maze, saw farm animals and enjoyed playing in the park! Thank you to Mrs. Tremblay for organizing this field trip and thank you to all the parents who volunteered their time to join the classes. It was a great experience for the kids!


We Scare Hunger
Thank you to all to families that donated to our We Scare Hunger food drive for the Richmond Hill Food Bank. Also, thanks to our Student Council for volunteering their time to gather, organize, pack and deliver the donations.
Ring of Peace

On Thursday, November 2nd, 6 members of Bayview Hill’s Children in Action group (CIA) along with Ms. Bowman attended the YRDSB’s Ring of Peace unity rally. In the last few months, various sites across York Region including some YRDSB schools, have been vandalized with racist and anti-Semitic graffiti. National and global incidents of discrimination and hate have continued to affect our students, staff and communities. In light of this, York Region District School Board hosted a unity rally, Ring of Peace: Inspire Learning, Inspire Action!, to show support for safe, inclusionary spaces free from discrimination and hate for all learners in York Region.


Flu Season
Flu season is nearly here. Be prepared by getting the flu shot as early as possible.
The first and best step to preventing influenza (the flu), is to get the flu shot every year. Influenza spreads quickly and easily from an infected person to others. Please refer to the poster below for more information.



Neighbourhood Watch Groups
The Bayview Hill community has established Neighbourhood Watch Groups to help protect the entire Bayview Hill community from crime, particularly break-ins. Please refer to the poster below for more information:
