Huron Happenings – June 19, 2017

SCHOOL COUNCIL MEETING

Our last School Council meeting for this school year is on Tuesday June 20th, 2017 at 6:00pm. This is typically a shorter meeting, with the main agenda item being an update on our incredibly wonderful Picnic For the Arts. All parents/caregivers are invited and welcome to attend School Council meetings. Please plan to join us if you’re interested. There will be babysitting and pizza available for children.

YoYo’s FUNDRAISING

Again this year, YoYo’s Yogurt Cafe is partnering with Huron School for a fundraising evening. Please see the attached flier for more information, additionally a separate email has been sent to our Huron community. We’re looking forward to seeing lots of Huron families and friends at YoYo’s (417 Bloor Street West) from 3:30pm until closing on Thursday June 22nd, 2017.

RIGHT TO PLAY

“Right to Play” is a charitable organization which uses the power of play to educate and empower children around the world. They focus on creating changes in three main areas: quality education, peaceful communities and health practices. The morning of Friday June 23rd, 2017 Huron is holding our annual “Right to Play” Day. Games will be taught by the grade 6 students to students in Kindergarten to Grade 5. Students are asked to bring a $2 donation for the charity on the day of the event. For more information about “Right to Play” please check out: http://www.righttoplay.ca

HURON EARTH HOUR

Huron’s June Earth Hour will be held on Friday June 23rd from 2:20-3:20pm. As we do every month, this is an opportunity for everyone in our school community to really think about energy conservation by turning off our lights and powering down as many electronics as we can. We also encourage all Huron families to have a similar focused hour at your homes each month as well.

LOST AND FOUND

This week we will start to spread out our Lost and Found collection onto tables in the first floor hallway, as well as in the Lost and Found structure in the front foyer. Please continue to check Lost and Found regularly and take home items that belong to you. As classrooms are being cleaned-up at the end of the school year more and more items will be ‘found’ and brought to the Lost and Found area – so please check Lost and Found daily. A reminder to everyone that all items left in the Lost and Found at the end of the school year will be donated to a charity so please make sure you have claimed all items that belong to your family by June 30th.
