Hyland Heights News for May 6th
Good afternoon Hawk Families,
It’s been another great week at HylandHeights. Our students and staff looked great in Cinco deMayo colours, and blue and white for Leafs spirit day. Our school spirit days continue into May:
Friday May 13- Hawks Wear or School Colours Day
Tuesday May 17- International Day Against Homophobia, transphobia and Biphobia, wear rainbow colours
Friday May 27- Beach wear day- shorts, sundresses, flip flops, sunhats- think summer!
Our running club met and ran a few times this week, our primary students and staff enjoyed a morning full of mindfulness activities on Friday to recognize UGDSB Education Week and Mental Health Week, and our GSA created pronoun pins for our staff and visitors to wear. Thank you to all of our families who were able to support our School Council’s MacMillian fundraiser. All overdue orders must be returned to the school on Monday.
