Dear Clairlea Families…
Next Meeting:
School Council will meet again in September as always every third
Wednesday of each month at 7:00pm and free child-minding is
available. Please refer to the school calendar distributed in
September for exact dates. We hope to see you there in the first meeting
where School Council elections will take place.
Fun Fair
2015 Postponed:
It was decided in our last school council meeting that the 2015 Fun Fair will be postponed to June 2016. For those of you that have been involved or attended a Fun Fair or a Halloween Howl or any school council event at Clairlea in the last few years you know that the Clairlea staff play a key role in supporting the large events by volunteering their time to run the stations. We also have a core group of fantastic tireless parents that have continuously volunteered year after year for all events. Both these groups have enabled us as a school council to run all the successful events that the community has come to expect year over year. This year given the Work to Rule scenario in place there was no guarantee that the Clairlea staff would be available or allowed to help out even though the staff wanted to be involved. This left our core group of parents which would not be enough to run a large event with many stations such as the fun fair. Therefore the decision to postpone was made.

The goal for the fitness equipment has not been impacted and
is still moving forward and the timing with respect to zoning the area via the
TDSB is currently aligned with sometime in 2016. We hope going forward
that more parent volunteers join our core group to expand the group as well as
fill in the space of those parents that have children that are graduating from
Clairlea this year. If you want to volunteer for the upcoming year please
contact us at clairleacouncil@gmail.com.
We are always looking for parents for the following events – day and evening:
Halloween Howl
Spirit Wear
Norcard
Fun Fair
