Fun Fair is coming sooner than you think ….
The evening of Thursday June 13 will be full of fun and games and you will not want to miss out! Planning has been in the works for months and now you can read all about it and keep up to date with our new website!

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 will start next week (May 1) and run right up to the evening of the fair, online! You can even start browsing 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.

Visit https://www.32auctions.com/BloordaleFunFair2019

Check back often as items will continue to be added as we receive them!

As always, we are happy to receive donations from our school community and so please see the attached letter for more information.


Question of the Month
In the last newsletter we asked how often you would like to receive updates from the council and the majority of respondents said they would like updates a couple of times a month! So, we are going to try this out for the remainder of the year and keep parents informed of all the events and special days that are happening which is actually a good time as the last couple of months are always very busy here at Bloordale. Keep your eyes on your inbox every other Friday for more Bloordale Council News!

For ease, we will move question of the month to our website so visit often for updates and new ways to have your say!

But as always you can email us at BloordaleParents@gmail.com with your questions, thoughts, and ideas!

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. It is not easy and for many it is down right scary, if you need any help at all, you can reach out to your extended Bloordale family at anytime :) The TDSB has so many links at your finger tips to help you get started in finding help where you need it; from online learning to mental health, the website has got you many starting points.
