Spirit Wear

We're very excited to announce that we will be running a virtual store for Mason Road Spirit Wear. After weeks of setting this up with Marchant's, we finally have our virtual store up and running. Please click the link at the bottom to view and place any orders. While we will not have the items in time for the holidays, one idea that was mentioned was that parents could order spirit wear, print off a photo of the item, then wrap it up.

We are going to keep the store active through the holidays and close it Wednesday, January 8th to allow any late orders time to get in.

We have a sizing table set up in our front foyer for families to come and check the size of any spirit wear items (t-shirts + sweatshirts) that they might be interested in ordering. The items there aren't the actual spirit wear items, rather they're leftovers from other schools' orders that are to be used solely to check sizes.

What a week at Mason Road Jr. P.S.!!!

This week’s Mason Mustang Round Up’s focus is centered around our Terry Fox run that took place throughout the day on Friday.

First, let me congratulate everyone on a job well done for bringing in their Toonie for Terry and participating in the Terry Fox Run!

We’re still collecting donations until Thursday, so if you wish to donate to the Terry Fox Foundation, we will accept it until Meet the Teacher Night. At that time, we’ll calculate the total amount that Mason Road Jr. P.S. is donating to this great cause.

The run was a huge success! Students from Kindergarten to Grade 6 participated at different times throughout the day and after they finished their run, were treated to a giant freezie. Thank you to the Mason Rd School Council for donating the freezies for our students! (Check out a few photos below)

CAT4 testing took place this past week for Grades 2, 4, 5, and 6 (Grade 1 and Grade 3 students do not participate in this testing). Our students did a fantastic job of concentrating and focusing on their work. Our teachers are super proud of their strong effort!

This coming week, X-Movement is coming back to Mason Road this Monday – Thursday. Every class will have at least 2 periods throughout the week where they will be participating in Footy (also known as Australian Rules Football).

X-Movement will also be joining Mason Road on Thursday evening at the Meet the Teacher Night in our auditorium. Families are welcome to stop in and join in the fun that they will be putting on!!!

Important Upcoming dates:

• Sept. 23-26^th - X-Movement returns to Mason Road!

Good afternoon, everyone! We had a great week at Mason Road Jr. P.S.

This week’s Mason Mustang Round Up is going to be centered around the amazing clubs and teams that have started up, as well as a general update to the community about exciting events taking place.

As we’re now in the full swing of the school year at Mason Road, students can start to join the clubs and sports teams that have been communicated on our morning announcements. Cross Country is slated to start Monday morning at 8:15am on the back field. A special thank you goes out to the teachers that have given up their personal time to coach the Mason Road runners from Grade 1-6. The Cross-Country meet date hasn’t been announced yet, but as soon as we get the date and location, we’ll be sure to share.

Our annual Terry Fox run is this coming Friday. Thank you to everyone who has sent in a “Toonie for Terry” (or any donation). All donations will be sent directly to the Terry Fox Foundation, which goes towards cancer research. Our run on Friday will be throughout the day, so students can check in with their teacher to see what time of day that they’ll be running.

CAT4 testing starts on Monday for Grades 2, 4, 5, and 6. Grade 1 and Grade 3 students do not participate in this testing. The purpose of this testing is to identify the strengths and needs of our students and help our teachers and staff identify the areas in which we need to improve/focus on in the coming school year.

Important Upcoming dates:

• Week of Sept. 16^th - CAT4 testing (Grade 2, 4, 5, and 6)
• Sept. 20^th – Terry Fox Run
• Sept. 23-26^th - X-Movement returns to Mason Road!

Welcome back! What a great start up to this school year. Thank you everyone!!!

This week’s Mason Mustang Round Up is going to be centered around student safety, particularly within our school parking lot.

Last school year, we had several near-misses, where students were almost hit by a parent’s vehicle in our school parking lot. We also had one of our staff member’s vehicle hit by accident. In an effort to avoid these situations, we have started our Kiss ‘N Ride program, supervised by teachers and staff. Parents are welcome to drive into our school parking before and after school to drop off and pick up their students. Unfortunately, we do not have the space to welcome parent vehicles into our lot to park and wait. At dismissal, if parents are early, they’re asked not to enter the parking lot until 3:25pm.

          We have received many inquiries into where parents can park their vehicles when they wish to walk their students to their school door in the morning or after school. We suggest parking on a side street where the posted signs allow parking.

          We appreciate the community’s support with this new normal.

Important Upcoming dates:

• Week of Sept. 16^th - CAT4 testing (Grade 2, 4, 5, and 6)
• Sept. 20^th – Terry Fox Run
• Oct. 1^st + 2^nd – Toronto Fire Safety Presentation (all grades)
