Staff Appreciation Lunch
This year we are holding the Staff Appreciation Day on Tuesday May 7th.

Help us say "Thank you" to all the wonderful staff! If you can donate food items
(potluck style), decor or help out, please proceed to the sign-up link and fill out
where you can help!


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.


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!

Do You Need Help With ---- Food

So many families in our city find the expenses related to food difficult in the best of times; in the last couple of months this stress has become even worse for so many more families. There are families all over our city and beyond who earlier this year could never have imagined that they would be faced with food insecurity in a matter of only weeks!  As we all were looking forward to the end of a long winter and making plans for this spring and coming summer, future plans just stopped in place. I know I don't need to go on but what I want to use this post for is to let those of you who may need some help know who you an turn to here in our own community!

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...
