Pool update

The latest media reports (as of today, April 16) indicate no progress has been made by the TDSB, City of Toronto and the Provincial government in saving the TDSB school pools slated for closure in 2008 and 2009 (including our pool here at Fern).

Parents have been asking what else can be done to save the pool. A number of parents have made suggestions such as partnerships with outside organizations and a fundraising campaign.

The issue of the pool will be on the agenda for our next meeting, Thursday, April 24, at 7:00 pm. Everyone interested in this issue is encouraged to come out and join us for a discussion.

John Richmond, Chair, Fern School Council
