Please visit our COVID-19 page for the most up-to-date information. Our plan is subject to change throughout the school year as more information becomes available.​

One of the most important ways parents/guardians and community members can make a meaningful difference for students is by participating on the school council. Under the School Act, a school council is a collective association designed to advise the principal and the CBE Board of Trustees on matters related to the school. School councils have legislated advisory and decision-making authority. They are different from Parent Societies & Associations, whose main function is to raise funds for the school.​​ You can find more details in the CBE School Council Handbook​.​​​​

School Council

All parents are welcome to attend school council meetings. Each month a meeting is held at the school. Parents, community stakeholders and staff discuss how best to support learning at our school. The work is significant and greatly valued by students, parents and staff. Please check the calendar for upcoming meetings dates and minutes from meetings will be posted on our website.

Meeting Dates/Schedule

School Council meetings are held from 6:30 - 8:00 PM. Parent Council and Parent Society meetings are virtual. If you require a link to the virtual meeting, please email thorncliffesc@gmail.com.

To kick off family literacy day, s and t are dropping everything and reading this morning. We are excited to see other activities planned for the day. #CBEliteracy https://t.co/JUlPiRX9sE

Welcome back Thorncliffe Students! We hope you enjoyed winter break and your first day of online learning. January 8, is a PD day, so there will be no classes. We are excited to see students in person on January 11.

Students in the Grade 5 and 6 class are analyzing and finding patterns to start off their Patterns and Relations topic! https://t.co/ZkHhm2G1XZ

Our Grade 5 and 6 students created an encouragement and affirmation bulletin board for the students and staff. https://t.co/rvDg7keais

Our grade 1 & 2 Ss took on a leadership role and decorated the school tree. Was I ever surprised by their creativity! Who doesn’t love a giant peach as a tree topper? https://t.co/VcmGM1m22q
