Girls' Soccer Championship!

Way to go team! East Conference Champions!

We play at Monarch Park on Tuesday at 12:00. We will leave Clairlea at 11:00 and will meet at Monarch Park at 11:30.  After we win our first game, we will play for the championship at 2:00.  This may mean that we will be late for bussing after school.  If your daughter takes a bus home, please make alternate arrangements for tomorrow.  If this is a problem, let me know.  I may be able to help out. 

If you are able to help with transportation, please email me at rebecca.purvis@tdsb.on.ca.

Thanks!

Girls' Soccer Practice Tomorrow

Hey Girls!  Let's get ready for next Friday!  We'll meet in the front foyer at 7:30.  See you there!

Panther Proud!

Congratulations to all of our Cross Country competitors.  You made us all very proud today.  Your runs met personal goals, pushed you farther than before and challenged you in ways you may not have expected.  The behaviour of our entire team was commendable and you represented Clairlea very well.

If you placed in the top 50 of your race, you will be moving on to Monday's meet.  The meet on Monday will again be at Thomson Park.  We are very proud to be taking 35 runners with us to this meet.  If you are able to drive students to and from Thomson Park, we'd love your help.  Please email rebecca.purvis@tdsb.on.ca as soon as possible. 

Congratulations again to all of our runners!

Hello Team!  If we haven't told you lately, YOU ARE AMAZING! 
So amazing, the team you play next wants more time to practice. 

Our semifinal tournament has been moved to October 25th in the morning.  The tournament will be played at North Bendale Elementary School.  If any parents are interested in driving their child and/or other students, please let me know as soon as possible so we can make sure we're all set. 

As always, parents and families are more than welcome to drop by and watch the girls play.  Our first game will be at 9:00 am.  If (when) we win that game, we'll play again at 11:10 am. 

Thanks for your support and flexibility.

Girls' Grade 5/6 Soccer MOVING ON UP!

Congratulations to our grade 5/6 girls' soccer team.  They played beautifully at today's tournament winning all three games and only conceding one goal all day long.  Their conduct at the tournament was unmatched and we are so proud of them.

We are very excited to be moving on to the Eastern Semifinals on October 18th.  Families are more than welcome to attend the tournament and if any parents are interested in driving, please let me know by emailing me at rebecca.purvis@tdsb.on.ca. 

Congratulations Girls!

Running Club

We are very excited about our upcoming cross country meet on Thursday, October 17. 

Unfortunately, due to the late date change, we are having a very difficult time securing bussing.  We are working on it right now and hope that we can find an available bus. In the event that we can not, we are looking for a number of parent volunteers to drive our athletes to and from Thompson Park on that date.  If you are available to help out, please send an email to rebecca.purvis@tdsb.on.ca, stephanie.bauman@tdsb.on.ca or michelle.carson@tdsb.on.ca. 

Thanks for your support!

Grade 5/6 Girls' Soccer

Hey Team!  I'd like to apologize for not posting information about our tournament date earlier.  We are very excited to be playing three games tomorrow (Thursday, October 10) at GP Mackie Junior Public School.  Our games are at 9:50, 12:00 and 1:20. 

The top two teams from this tournament will move on to the Eastern Finals.  We do not have a date for this tournament day at this time.  If we move on from that, we'll be playing at the City Championships on October 29th.  I will forward dates and times for the Eastern Finals as soon as I am aware of them. 

Of course, we would love to have some Clairlea fans come out to the games and cheer us on.
