SCHOOLYARD REVITALIZATION

JANUARY 30th, 2018
6:00pm

We are holding a special meeting on Tuesday, January 30th at 6:00pm in the Gym to discuss the future revitalization of Huron’s schoolyard. Please join us to discuss the big tree, the big field, tennis courts, Kindergarten space and more. We want your ideas and input. Our local Councillor Joe Cressy and our School Board Trustee Ausma Malik will both be coming. We hope to see you there! Please see the attached flier for more information and please plan to join us. Babysitting and pizza will be available for children. We hope to see you there!

ROSENEATH THEATRE PERFORMANCE

On Tuesday January 30th we are looking forward to welcoming Roseneath Theatre to Huron for their performance of Birds of a Feather. The performance will start after the morning announcements (at approximately 9:15am) and is for students in Grades 1, 2 and 3. Parents and caregivers are welcome to come and join us for this performance if you are available.

WINTER WALK TO SCHOOL DAY

It’s Winter! Don’t hibernate – walk to school and celebrate! Huron’s annual Winter Walk to School Day is coming up on Wednesday February 7th. Students and families are encouraged to walk to school to promote daily physical activity, a healthier environment, safer streets, making friends and…having fun! Free hot chocolate will be served at the front of the school to welcome walkers as they arrive. Please bring a reusable mug/thermos to reduce waste! If you forget a mug, you can pay $1.00 to have your hot chocolate in a disposable cup. And check out the attached poster created by one of our student Eco Leaders! As always, we would love to have any volunteers help us with making and serving the hot chocolate. Please contact Diana Will Stork at diana.willstork@tdsb.on.ca if you can help us out that morning.

KINDERGARTEN REGISTRATIONS

Please help us spread the word – Huron is going to be holding our KINDERGARTEN REGISTRATION DAY on TUESDAY FEBRUARY 13th, 2018 starting at 9:15am. Children born in 2014 should be registering for Junior Kindergarten starting in September 2018, and any children not already in Kindergarten and born in 2013 can register for Senior Kindergarten. If you are coming to register a child you need to bring the following documentation with you:

1) Child’s birth certificate or passport
2) Child’s Record of Immunization
3) Proof of your address (2 pieces – 1 needs to be a lease or property tax bill and the second a utility bill)

Please note that on February 13th we will ONLY be registering children who live in the boundary area for Huron. Even if you already have another child attending Huron you MUST apply under Optional Attendance for a sibling to attend. You can get an Optional Attendance application form from the Main Office, or it is available on-line: http://www.tdsb.on.ca/Elementary-School/School-Choices/Optional-Attendance.
