Parent/Guardian/Caregiver Book Club Update

Hi everyone, while working to develop a parent book club it is becoming apparent that there are not a lot of people who want to commit to a formal club with meetings at the moment, which I totally understand. At the end of the day the last thing I feel like doing is jumping on another Zoom meeting. So, to try and make this easier for anyone who is interested I have put together a Google Classroom that can be used as a place to connect and discuss on our own time.

I will include an invitation in the May Council Update but as the room is set up and has some book suggestions ready you can sign up here:

So why use a Google Classroom? So many of us are learning to navigate around these "virtual classes" or at least our kids are and so because of that I thought why not keep all our info in one place and use this platform as best we can.  If anyone needs help, our kids will be able to find what we need! 

But of course if you do need more help send me an email at bloordaleparents@gmail.com

Please keep in mind that this is a Parent-Run Volunteer book club and will not be run by school staff.

Crosswalk at Renforth and Toledo .... lets make it a reality

On November 13 at 6:30 the Eatonville Parent Council will be holding a Traffic Panel Meeting with special guests from the City of Toronto, Traffic Services Department; as well as our local Councillor, Deputy Mayor Stephen Holyday. One of the issues on the agenda will be the need for a crosswalk on Renforth Drive, closer to Toledo. As a lead up to this meeting I have created a petition for all in our area who recognize the need for this important safety infastructure which is long overdue. Did you know that our school turns 60 in 2020? The roads around us have changed a lot since Bloordale opened in 1960, wouldn't it be nice if this was the year we could give the gift of safety for all our current and future Bloordale students! We have a plaque for 50 years on a rock outside our front door, perhaps a plaque near a new crosswalk this time, sounds like a nice idea don't you think!

Not The Year We Expected .....

Well, what a year 2020 is turning out to be, one we will never forget and one that our kids will tell tales of to future generations. But while we are able to one day tell stories of this time, many are still trying to come to terms with this new way of life.
