The Eagles' Nest

Come one, come all!

Just a reminder that tomorrow, Thursday, September 20th, is our first school council meeting of the year. We will be meeting in the Music Room from 7pm to 8:30pm (and there is free childcare available). We have a lot to discuss and the new Principal will be there, too. Please join us if you can!

Terry Fox Community Walk at Earl Haig P.S!

All are welcome to walk with the students on Thursday, September 20th. We are meeting at 9am in the West Yard. Please send a toonie (or more!) with your student as a donation for The Terry Fox Foundation.

We hope to see you there!

Our Earl Haig P.S. cross country running team is at it again! Many of our students, in grades 1 through 8, can be found lacing up their running shoes at the school track most mornings to get ready for the big meet down at Ashbridge’s Bay on October 4th.

To our cross country running families: if you’d like to go the extra mile and check out the course on your own, race course maps for the Ashbridge’s meet are available here:

Good luck with your training – we’re all rooting for you!

Hello everyone!

Please take note of the date change for our first school council meeting of the year. We are now going to meet on Thursday, September 20th, from 7:00-8:30, in the music room. (Childcare will be provided)

If you are interested in an elected role, please fill out the self-nomination form that was sent home in backpacks earlier this week and bring it with you to our first meeting.

In addition to Executive Council roles, there are many other ways parents and caregivers can help – snack/lunch program volunteers, bakers, event support, and so much more!

This year, we will also be kicking our playground revitalization project into high gear. PLAY EH! will need team members – especially those with experience in writing grant proposal, communications, and fundraising. If you are interested, we will be collecting names at our meeting next week.

It’s going to be a busy and exciting year. Hope to see you as we kick it all off on the 20th!
