Crafty Corner Station Donation

When we say we will have something for everyone at this year’s Fair, we mean it! New this year is the Craft Corner where we will have projects for artists and crafters of all ages and levels! But we need your help, we are accepting donations
 of colourful sharpies and paint pens in new or almost new condition and scrapbook paper in any design. Also helpful would be yarn, ribbon, and crayons.

If you can help please bring items to the school office or email bloordaleparents@gmail.com to make arrangements if you are able to help out in larger quantities.




Silent Auction

Every Bloordale Fun Fair has a silent auction that runs at the event. This year we are stepping it up a notch and the auction went live on May 1. It will run right up to the evening of the fair, online! So, you can get bidding today with some early items that are up on the auction site to get a taste of what’s to come. Once the auction closes at 7 pm on the night of the fair winners will still be asked to pay at the school as online payments will not be accepted for auction items.


Check back often as items will continue to be added as we receive them!
Email us to find out how you can help the auction by donating new items, gift cards, or experience packages today!



Calling ALL those who would like to Volunteer for the day of the fair …
Contact bloordaleparents@gmail.com or the school office for more information!


HAVE A WONDERFUL WEEK 😊

Sponsorship Options Still Available

Have you noticed the sponsorship signs outside the main doors?  Have you thought about how many people drive past that each day, how many of our neighbourhood  residents walk past each day?  Now what about the exposure that is given to our sponsors on our website, in these newsletters, and even at the event itself?  Keep in mind that we promote the Fun Fair right across the area through our feeder schools, local library, independent businesses, and community bulletin boards. 80% of the profit of this event will go right back into the school to improve the technology that our students use each day. Ask your kids how much it is needed, they will be your best insight! With all this said, there are 3 different levels and if you or someone you know is a small business owner who is looking to help a good cause, please consider Bloordale Fun Fair Sponsorship.  Contact us via email and we will have our Sponsorship Lead Extraordinaire contact you w...

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.
