Winter weather advisory in effect for TO on Thursday

by  • 

A weather advisory is in effect for the City of Toronto

Snowfall and rapidly falling temperatures could affect road conditions late Thursday afternoon and evening.

A cold front is expected to track over Southern Ontario Thursday. As this front passes temperatures will drop and scattered rain showers will change to flurries. As a result, untreated surfaces could become icy and slippery late Thursday afternoon into early evening affecting the evening commute.

Please continue to monitor alerts and forecasts issued by Environment Canada. To report severe weather, send an email to ec.cpio-tempetes-ospc-storms.ec@canada.ca or tweet reports using #ONStorm.

So hope you enjoyed brilliantly sunny Bayview Ave. before the storm. It was the Wednesday that was.

Such a November 8

CGS celebrates Terry Fox at their 19th Annual Walk

by  • 

Children’s Garden School couldn’t have asked for a better day to celebrate Terry Fox. The community came out in full strength last Friday. This was the 19th consecutive Terry Fox Walk for CGS. This small but mighty Leaside school is a top fundraiser in Ontario for schools of 300 students or less. The spirit of perseverance, hope and love that Terry Fox embodied is a guiding principal for staff and students all year long.

Students have fun with phonics at Children’s Garden School

by  • 

The Children’s Garden School year is off to a great start. The JKs are already well into their phonics program, learning their letter sounds and the differences between vowels and consonants. Students add letters as they build their ‘train’, one sound at a time. Vowel ‘cars’ in the train are always coloured red to remind the children that they play a special role in every word. CGS students are working well beyond public school expectations at this grade level. Working with their teachers in small groups allows for focused instruction. Boys, often thought not to enjoy language arts at this stage, thrive in this structured atmosphere.

JK classes for the 2017/18 school year are full but there is space available for the 2018/19 school year. Registration is just around the corner on November 16. Book your tour today to see what CGS can offer your child. Is your child still not adjusting to their SK classroom? Spaces available now. New SK students will start at the beginning of the phonics program and will get the full benefit that JK students receive. Find out more at cgsschool.com or call Director of Admission, Kelly Scott at 416 423 5017 x 43.
