Pedalheads, an organization that delivers programs that promote kids’ health and development, lead these sessions which were brought to the school as part of Active and Safe Routes to School in partnership with the City of Markham. There were lots of smiles as the students partici- pated in a variety of challenging bike activities. Thanks to all the parent volunteers who came out to help and support this event. Biking is a great active way to get to and from school, so please encourage your kids to continue to use this form of transportation! Help to Keep our UPS Grounds Healthy! Winter is just around the corner and our gardens and planters need a little TLC! You can get involved by lending a hand. The gardens need some edging, weeding and deadheading before the cold weather sets in. Our school also has three very large planters by the main school entrance that need to be redone for the winter season ahead. All of our gardens are cared for by volunteers. If you're interested in lending a hand, please contact Suzanne Fearn at [email protected]. Thanks for helping to keep the school grounds beautiful and healthy! Community Outreach The goal of COMMUNITY OUTREACH at UPS is to allow staff, students and families to contribute and support our community whether locally or globally and reflect on how fortunate we are. We hope to encourage students to become active, global citizens and understand their roles as leaders through par- ticipation in local events. This year we will have multiple opportunities to ‘reach our community’ and become leaders. Here are highlights for the first 3 months of the year: September: students participated in Markham Fair by submitting original pieces of work. November: two students from UPS will participate in the Unionville outdoor Remembrance Day procession and place a wreath at the cenotaph. We will also launch our first fundraiser with JUMPSTART – look for more information to come home shortly! We look forward to a very active year – working together to help others and raise our own awareness about the needs in our community and beyond. THE UNIONVILLE VOICE P A G E 4 International Walk to School Day – October 8 Thanks for a successful International Walk to School Day ! On Wednesday, October 8, Unionville Public School’s staff, students and families came out to celebrate International Walk to School Day! The York Regional Police, Public Health Nurses and representatives from Regional Municipality of York, including the Mayor came out with great enthusiasm. International Walk to School Day is an event that is celebrated across Canada and this year, we partnered with The Regional Municipality of York and York Regional Police to promote safety and the importance of active travel for the trip to/from school. Despite the weather starting to get colder, please try and continue to walk, bike or be active on your travels to and from school. For those of you who live farther away from the school, park a block or two away and “walk a block” to school, but en- sure you are parked in a legal parking area. Remember to walk with your child or have your child walk with other students and use the sidewalks and pathways. If possible, cross the street where crossing guards are available. Please ensure that your child/children are dressed for the weather. If your child(ren) children are eligible for school bussing, they are encouraged to use the bus service, because taking the bus is a sustainable form of travel. We hope that you saw the photo of some of the smiling faces from this event that appeared in Thursday, October 9, Economist and Sun. Thanks to everyone who was active getting to school and supported this “Active and Safe Routes to School” event. It was great to see all the students and families out and being active! P A G E 5 Student News Spirit Day The Student Parliament ran a successful Wacky Hair Day for our last spirit day. The class with the most participants was Mrs. Hoffman’s class who won the spirit cup! They had the honour of picking the next spirit day and they decided upon Superhero Day. Stay tuned for the date in November. Students are re- minded that they can also create their own superhero, as well as dressing up as well known ones. Peace Tree Conference Mrs. Cooper took three grade 5s and three grade 6s to this year’s Peace Tree Conference, which focuses on inclusivity and anti-bullying. The conference was very well received and the students developed an action plan, which they will be implementing at UPS. VIP Program The grade 6s are currently participating in the York Region Police’s VIP (Values, Influences and Peers) Program. Officer Jen from YRP has been running the session with our students to educate them about some of the challenges they may face with respect to values and rules, peer pressure, authority figures, alcohol, tobacco and drugs, internet safety, and youth and the law.

    WELLNESS. THE NEW LUXURY BY KYLEMORE We believe that discerning home buyers recognize that luxury is more than just a “what.” It is also a “where” and a “how”. It is an expectation that wellness be the focus of every aspect of the way their community is designed, and their home is made. Wellness is an active process of becoming aware of and making choices toward a healthy and fulfilling life. It is a dynamic process of change and growth; a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being. Wellness is the truest form of luxury. LIVE. WELLNESS.

April 6, 2018 This document is available in alternative formats upon request by contacting: [email protected] 416-351-8585 (1-800-505-8755) April 6, 2018 Sixteenth Land Holdings Inc. C/O Mr. Michael Montgomery Kylemore Communities 9980 Kennedy Road, Suite 200 Markham, ON L6C 0M4 Dear Mr. Montgomery: RE: York Downs Development – Community Infrastructure Study (Markham, Ontario) urbanMetrics inc. is pleased to submit our Community Infrastructure Study, undertaken on behalf of Sixteenth Land Holdings Inc. in support of their application for Official Plan and Zoning By-Law Amendments in the City of Markham, Ontario. These amendments are being sought to allow for the redevelopment of the York Downs Golf Course for a range of new low-rise, mid-rise and mixed-use residential uses, along with accompanying institutional (i.e., school) and parks/open space. Based on the preliminary land use plan for the subject lands, the proposed development could ultimately include a total of some 2,295 new residential units upon full build-out. These residential uses would generally be comprised of single detached dwellings, traditional townhouses, stacked townhouse blocks, back-to-back townhouse blocks, as well as mid-rise condominiums. The primary purpose of this study has been to identify the levels of existing community/social infrastructure in the area of Markham surrounding the subject site, as well as to evaluate the capacity and need for new infrastructure to support future population and employment growth. We hope that you find the information presented herein helpful as part of your ongoing discussions with municipal staff.
