Program Accommodation Review

The second phase of the Yonge-Eglinton Program Area Review (PAR) took place in the Spring of 2021 to balance enrollment within local elementary schools in the Yonge-Eglinton area and includes the Bannockburn building to resolve ongoing accommodation pressures. Recommendations from that review were approved by the Board of Trustees on June 30, 2021.

There will not be any changes to registration during the 2021 2022 school year. Starting in September 2022, Junior Kindergarten students in the English stream can register at John Fisher to begin the process of gradually phasing in a dual track French Immersion/English stream.

We are an allergy aware zone.

There are a number of children at John Fisher who have life-threatening allergies to nuts that can be triggered by exposure to trace amounts of the allergen. The oil or smell from nuts can cause anaphylaxis in some individuals.

To minimize the risk of exposure at the school the following rules apply:

• No nuts or foods containing nuts are to be brought into the school.
• Children should not share their lunches or snacks.
• For class events and/or cultural celebrations:

Only purchased food that is in the original wrapping and clearly labelled nut-free can be brought to the event.


Thank you for considering the safety of our children by adhering to these rules.
