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.
It happened just after 3:00 pm this afternoon at the intersection of Bayview Avenue and Soudan Ave./Parkhurst Blvd. Minor injuries reported. (Photos provided by Ian Smith)

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.
Yet another crash has been reported to the Bulldog this afternoon. It happened just before 4pm on September 29th, 2017 at the intersection of Bayview Avenue and Parkhurst Blvd/Soudan Ave. The Mercedes Benz sustained damage when a smaller car, reportedly crashed into it. The airbag in the Benz was deployed. Bits and pieces of the smaller vehicle can be seen littered on the road. (Photos: Ian Smith)

Weather advisory in effect for:
City of Toronto
Conditions will be favourable for the development of funnel clouds today.
Scattered thunderstorms across Southern Ontario will continue into this evening.
Some of the thunderstorms will bring dime sized hail, wind gusts to 70 km/h and frequent lightning.
Funnel clouds may also make a brief appearance this afternoon in this unseasonably cool and unstable air mass.
Thunderstorms are expected to dissipate later this evening.
These types of funnel clouds are generated by weak rotation under rapidly growing clouds or weak thunderstorms. This weak rotation is normally not a danger near the ground. However, there is a chance that this rotation could intensify and become a weak landspout tornado.
Treat any funnel cloud sighting seriously. Should a funnel cloud develop nearby, prepare to take shelter. These funnel clouds usually appear with little or no warning.
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.
Much-loved crossing guard Mona Piper has served the kids, parents and staff of Maurice Cody School just around the corner from her home for 43 years. Now she has suffered an injury and fallen ill as well. She must retire. She spoke with Tom Hayes of Global News.
