A big thank you to Mr. Guillotte and the Junior and Intermediate teachers for organizing such a great Track and Field Day!

Tickets order forms for this year’s talent show went home last week.  Be sure to get your orders in soon!  Tickets can also be purchased on the night of the event. Tickets are $6 and $3 for students in grade 8 and under.

One of the things that always happen when spring arrives is that students get out their summer clothes. This means that students need a reminder about Sunnybrae P.S.’s dress code. There are appropriate places for some clothing items that they wear… but it may not be at school! The dress code applies to students at any grade level.  Please see the link below for the school dress code.

‘Music Monday’ is celebrated on the first Monday in May across Canada. “Schools across the country will sing this year’s song titled, “Is Somebody Singing” throughout during the day. When the Coalition for Music Education coined the phrase, ‘Filling the Skies with Music’ for the 2013 edition of Music Monday, they truly meant it! The Coalition has partnered with CBC Music and the Canadian Space Agency to take the Music Monday celebration to new heights.”

“Astronaut Chris Hadfield and Barenaked Ladies front-man, Ed Robertson have collaborated between earth and space to co-write the official song for Music Monday 2013. The end-result features Hadfield playing the song from the International Space Station, while Robertson and the Wexford Gleeks, a TDSB school choir, join him to unite in song with schools and communities across our nation.”

Sunnybrae PS is on-board and registered to sing at 10:20am on Monday, May 6th. Parents are invited to join us for this wonderful celebration of song and dance.

Staff and students have spent several weeks learning the song, and a couple of students have learned to play the song on their chosen instrument. We are excited to sing together as a school with several instruments playing along with us.

Sincerely,

Sunnybrae Public School
