Birch Cliff Public School BIRCH CLIFF PUBLIC SCHOOL 1650 Kingston Road, Toronto, Ontario M1N 1S2 Telephone: 416-396-6060 | FAX: 416-396-6061 ​ ​ ​ Principal: Patricia Muir | Superintendent: Peter Chang | Trustee: Parthi Kandavel ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Newsletter​ ​*​ ​Summer 2018 Principal’s Office Message * Events * Reminders * Clubs * Council Updates From Admin & Chairs The 2017-2018 school year has been a fantastic year! It’s hard to remember all of the great happenings at Birch Cliff since last September! As a community, Birch Cliff was able to have a strong focus on our four As (Academics, Arts, Athletics, and Attitude). Academically, all of our ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ students progressed in all subject areas including mathematics, language, science, social studies, the arts, and physical health. Thank you to all of the teachers and support staff who made this possible. The arts had a Theatre Troupe that did a fantastic job as well as the daily artwork done by the individual classes. In the athletics, we had a variety of clubs and teams, and of course our regular Phys. Ed. periods and DPA. Lastly, the attitude at Birch Cliff continues to become stronger. All of the positive energy and supportive members of our community make all of this possible. A special thank you must go out to our Parent Council who has put in endless hours of organization and fundraising to make a lot of what we do at Birch Cliff possible. Lastly, we are saddened by the announcement of Mrs. Muir’s retirement. We will miss her dearly as she has put in almost a decade of her time as the Principal of Birch Cliff. She has done an amazing job and we wish her well. As you have all read last week, Birch Cliff’s new Principal, Ted Vine, will be heading our school in September. He is a very strong leader and well respected throughout his current community. We are all welcoming Ted with open arms and looking forward to working alongside him as our school leader. Welcome Ted! We wish all of the family, friends, and Birch Cliff community a happy and safe summer. Rest up and we cannot wait to see everyone on September 4th. ~ Mrs. Muir, Ms. Shah & Mr. Brown Dates to Remember ~ Sep. 4: First Day Back There will be no classes for the months of July and August.

It includes a variety of approaches such as community outreach, education, curriculum, marketing, and funding. Fuelling Student Success at the TDSB: Making the connection between what we ​ eat and how it affects wellness is one of the most important lessons we can learn when it comes to healthy eating. At the TDSB, we focus on empowering you or your child to take charge of your own wellness, and sharing your knowledge to promote healthy eating throughout your school community. Feeding Our Future: Toronto District School Board, through its Nutrition Foundation ​ Statement, recognizes the direct relationship between healthy nutrition and the ​ academic achievement of our students. Well-nourished children are ready and able ​ to learn in our classrooms. The TDSB is committed to working with its community partners to ensure that students have equitable access to high quality school-based nutrition programs and that through curriculum activities, have opportunities to develop good nutrition habits that last a lifetime. Feeding Hungry Students: Access to fresh and affordable food is a starting point to a healthy diet. Lack of access to ​ healthy foods has affected both low-income urban and rural communities for decades. A study released by the ​ ​ TDSB shows the significant role a nutritious breakfast plays in academic success. ​ ​ Are you interested in volunteering with the nutrition program at your child’s school? Or have questions about the nutrition programs offered? Please review these frequently asked questions for further information. To find out more ​ ​ ​ about our student nutrition programs and how our community partners support the programs, please visit Toronto ​ ​ Foundation for Student Success or www.studentnutritiontoronto.ca. ​ ​ ​ ​ Also, check out our health and physical education page to read more on how the MoE is preventing childhood ​ ​ ​ ​ obesity by getting kids active. ~ The TDSB (http://www.tdsb.on.ca/ElementarySchool/SupportingYou/Nutrition.aspx) ​ ​ ​ ​ - page 5 - ​ Pedestrian Safety The TDSB has some very important information for families to read regarding pedestrian safety. Topics included by the TDSB are as follows: (click on the topic for the link) ● Pedestrian Safety - Walk Safe PSA ● Tips for Parents and Frequently Asked Questions ● Making the Case for Active School Travel ● Canadian School Travel Planning Guide ● Vision Zero: Toronto's Road Safety Plan ● TDSB School Traffic Management Program To read all of their suggestions and watch their videos, please visit this link: http://www.tdsb.on.ca/About-Us/Innovation/Active-Transportation-Charter/Pedestrian-Safety The Toronto Public Health has issued a memo on the importance of walking to school along with how to walk to school safely.

Plans were brought forth to resolve a host of problems and to take advantage of opportunities along the lakeshore and in the regional watershed. While these challenges were often considered in isolation, over time the plan­ makers adopted a more comprehensive outlook. The topics discussed here include the struggle between the railways and other interests on and near the inner harbour; proposals to develop several major public properties on the waterfront; the systematization of municipal hard services; the emergence of a local planning movement and the development of general schemes for civic improvement; and the creation of a new public port authority, the Toronto Harbour Commissioners (THC), and the nature and evolution of its 1912 plan.
