Davisville Parents,

Here are some resources to help you through these times:

• Mindfulness Monday Meditations, which are now posted on our Davisville School website (see the top right corner of the page).
• Links to activities that the Ministry of Education and TDSB have provided to keep students engaged with the curriculum. Visit the Student Learning Resources page on the TDSB website for current student learning resources that can be accessed at home.
• Lancement du Concours Virtuel – Ensemble à distance: Thousands of Ontario students in French as a Second Language usually participate in the annual Canadian Parents for French public speaking event Concours d’Art Oratoire. It is supported by the Ministry of Education and aligns with the Ontario FSL curriculum. It normally takes place in classrooms at the TDSB and at Boards across Ontario and then at regional, provincial and national events. The amazing Canadian Parents for French staff across Canada have now moved Concours to a virtual format in only one week! Students in Kindergarten through Grade 12 across Canada are invited to record and post 1-3 minute videos online, en français, sharing how they are spending their time while schools are closed and events are cancelled. For more information, visit the Canadian Parents for French Ontario website.

We will be posting additional resources for parents on our School Council website, so stay tuned. Thank you too to parents who have forwarded resources along.

Wishing everyone well,

Davisville School Council

Skate Night – It was a lovely evening and we raised almost $10,000 in the silent auction!

Thank you to the volunteers that made it all happen – from all your donations, to assisting at the sweet & savoury table, to wearing the stylish bright yellow vests as skate evening marshals – the evening’s success is due in large part to all of you!

And a special thank you to the Skate Night organizing team!  They always manage to ensure a great evening – which is likely why this event is so highly anticipated!

At the writing of this email, the strike days for this week are Tuesday and Wednesday (February 11 & 12), and a PA day on Friday.

Since hot lunch and pizza were not possible on our regular days this week, the pizza team is bringing pizza lunch to Thursday for this week only!  If you were suppose to get your pizza lunch last Friday, these students will receive it on Thursday, February 13th – a Happy early Valentine’s day to students, and parents.
