Family Day Pictures October 1st

The atmosphere was quite festive at Parkdale on October 1st as the students, staff, and parents participated in the first ever Parkdale School Family Day. Everyone was treated to fresh, sweet corn, kebab wraps and other snacks and refreshments. Despite the chilly weather (luckily, no rain!) the children had a wonderful time playing on the various inflatable rides brought in for them. Children were asked to decorate the brick walls of the schoolyard with posters and drawings welcoming everyone to this wonderful occasion. The mayor of St-Laurent, Mr. Alan DeSousa, and the school commissioner, Mr. James Kromida, also participated in the event. The event was a clear success and it will definitely be repeated in the future!

A very special thank you goes out to Marché Yasmine (corner of Côte Vertu and Décarie) for supplying us with the kebabs and to Kloda Productions for helping us out with the inflatable rides for the children. Also, a warm thank you to all the parents that helped out at the event and to the teachers that supplied baked goodies for the children. It was fantastic to see parents, staff, and students enjoy themselves for an afternoon of fun-filled activities!
