Lunch Assistants Needed!!!

Are you available to come to the school between 11:50 am – 1:05 pm to supervise students during the lunch time? 

This is a paid position and you can work every day or only a few days per week. You must be willing to work with all age groups.

Please see the office if interested for further information.

Attendance Reminder

Our morning entry bell rings at 8:00am.  Students are expected to be in their classroom at 8:05am in time for morning announcements and the beginning of the instructional day.  Students entering the classroom after this time are late and will be reported as such.

When a student is absent or late, it is imperative that the parent/guardian telephone the school at 905-508-5696 before 8:00am each day.  Please select the “absence” mailbox and leave your child’s full name, grade, teacher and reason for the absence.

Students leaving the school before regular dismissal require a note to be given to the homeroom teacher and must sign-out in the school office.  When it is necessary to pick up your child for an appointment or because of illness, we ask that you come into the office so that your child can be signed out.

Mathematica Math Contests

For several years, Silver Stream Public School has participated in the Mathematica Math Contests for students in Grades 4-8. Our school is proud of the strong math skills our students have demonstrated by their many past awards. 

This year’s contest will be written on April 18, 2018 and will cost $3.75 per student. 

The tests are sent to Mathematica Centrum, the mathematics contest centre, to be marked. The results usually arrive back at the school in the beginning of June, and are also posted on the Mathematica website. We recognize the top students in our school at the end of year assembly in June, where we hand out certificates of achievement and medals for the students with the highest scores in each grade. 

Please register on Cash Online.

Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Many cultures have a time to celebrate the end of the growing season when all crops have been harvested for winter. The ancient Greeks, Romans and Egyptians all celebrated at harvest time and thanked their gods and goddesses. Today, throughout the world, we still celebrate at this time.

Thanksgiving is a day when people get together with their families to express gratitude for all the good things that have happened during the year: for health, family, friends, and of course, food of the harvest. 

We often think of European settlers as having started the celebration in North America. However, harvest feasts were held long before that. Aboriginal peoples throughout the continent harvested and preserved food to be stored for the long winter ahead and gave thanks. 

Regardless of the country or culture, the story is similar. People gave thanks for a successful harvest in a new land. Since then many other people have immigrated to Canada and the United States and brought the customs of giving thanks too. 

On this day of celebration and gratitude, we wish the students, staff and parents who observe Thanksgiving a happy and restful holiday.
