NUTRITION COMMITTEE

We oversee operations for the daily snack program, including program design, accounting, and fundraising. Team members may also handle other food-related initiatives, such as the hot lunch program.

Lead: Carolanne Graham

FUNDRAISING COMMITTEE

We plan, organize, and execute multiple fundraising events during the school year, and the profits are used for budget requests during the following school year. Typical fundraising events include (but are not limited to): dance-a-thon, bake sales, FunFest, and a 50/50 raffle.

Lead: Amanda Rootenberg

SCHOOLYARD REVITALIZATION COMMITTEE

We liaise with the principal, teachers, and the TDSB to support the redesign of the back playground—which is getting underway after years of pandemic-related inertia.

Leads: Jenna Ursini

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT COMMITTEE

We view School Council activities through an equitable lens. The team hosts community-building events and activities such as our Free Store, hosting speakers and workshops, and connecting with staff on activities inside and outside the classroom.

Lead: Stephanie Arnold

GREEN COMMITTEE

We plan and maintain the gardens at Bruce PS, including our new heart garden and the Valerie Mah Pollination Station, both on Larchmount Ave. Events may include community outreach in the fall and a clean up and/or planting day in the
spring. The committee would also like to explore ways to start environmental initiatives at Bruce.
