Toddler: Parent-Child Music Program
2026-05-22 10:45 - 11:15, 2026-05-29 10:45 - 11:15
Dear Toddler Parents,
We are looking forward to our annual Parent-Child Music Program. This program will take place during the month of May. Parents are invited to join us for some fun and music with the children every Friday during the month of May (with the exception of May 15th – Victoria Day weekend ). It is a four-week program based on the Musikgarten Curriculum that Clanmore uses in all our preschool programs.
Classes are led by our Toddler Music Teacher, Cosima Loranger, who is an exceptional singer & songwriter with extensive knowledge of the Musikgarten program and has been using the curriculum over the last 8 years at Clanmore Montessori School.
Classes will take place every Friday (May 1st, 8th, 22nd and 29th) 10:45 am to 11:15 am in the Toddler Room. Please arrive at the front entrance, gather and head to the Toddler Room where your children will be waiting for you. It is a wonderful time to bond through music and movement with your little one and an opportunity to add more songs to your repertoire. In addition to learning new songs, there will be pitch matching, rhythmic patterning, and keeping a steady beat with instruments.
Please note that we would be delighted to see grandparents, aunts, uncles, or nannies​ in the event that a parent is unable to join us.
At 11:15 am half-day children will go home with their parents and full-day children will stay in the class and get ready for outdoor play. Full-day parents who would like to take their children home are welcome to.
​**Please remember to park in the back parking lot, located behind the school.

MS Blue Jays Game
2026-05-27 11:00 - 17:00
Hello Middle School Parents,
For this year’s Middle School end-of-year outing, the students have decided to use a portion of their Production and Exchange funds to attend a School Day game and watch the Toronto Blue Jays. This was a community decision made collectively by the students as part of planning their year-end experience.
Please see the details of the outing below:

Date: Wednesday, May 27, 2026

Departure Time: 11:30 AM (approx.)

Game Time: 1:07 PM

We anticipate the game will end between approximately 3:40-4:15 PM.

Lunch: Students may choose to purchase lunch at the Rogers Centre or bring their own lunch. Any food brought from home must be packaged in plastic bags or containers.

Transportation: Students will travel downtown via GO Train with Annika and Veronika.

Return Time: We will travel to and from the Clarkson GO Station.

You will pick up your adolescent at the Clarkson GO Station on the south side of the tracks (1110 Southdown Road, Mississauga).

Pick-Up Time: Approximately 5:30 PM. We will keep the school updated if there are any changes to our arrival time.

Please feel free to ask your adolescent if you have any additional questions about the outing.

We are all looking forward to a fun day at the ballpark! Go Jays GO!
Thank you,
Middle School Guides

P.A Garden Party
2026-05-27 15:45 - 17:00
Dear Clanmore Families,
We are so excited about the Clanmore Parent Association Garden Party being held this afternoon from 3:45-5:00pm.
The end of the day routine will be a little different and we ask you to note:
All dismissal will take place from indoors (like we would on a rainy day – same as your child’s arrival door). If you are joining us at the Garden Party, we ask that you find parking (see details below) and walk to the door where your child/children will be dismissed into your hands. You can then proceed to the Clanmore yard for some anticipated fun! Please note that you will be responsible for your child once they are with you in the yard.
If you are not attending the Garden Party, we ask that you proceed through the pick up line as per usual and your child/children will be brought to your car. We do ask that you use extra caution in the parking lot as there will be more bodies moving through than usual.
All children in After School care will remain indoors today. Please come to reception to collect your child.
PARKING
Space is limited and if you are close enough to walk or bike we definitely recommend it. We have attached a map to show areas where you can safely park. If parking on Birkbank please park on the west side of the street only. Please note that there is a pathway from Byron Street to Lakeshore Road for easy access to the school. Please do not park outside of the designated white lines in the parking lot behind the school, nor anywhere on the grass.
Please let us know if you have any questions. Regards,The Clanmore Team

Program Orientation Evening (Parents of students new to Todd/Casa/Elem program next school year)
2026-05-28
For Those Families Joining Our Toddler, Casa and/or Elementary Communities Next Year,
We are delighted that you will be joining our Clanmore community in the 2026-2027 school year, and would like to invite you to Clanmore for an orientation meeting on
Thursday, May 28th 2026Toddler and Elementary – 6:00 pm Casa – 7:00 pm
We have found it to be beneficial both for us and for new families to have an opportunity to meet in person prior to the beginning of the school year. This timing works particularly well as we can discuss, among other things, ideas for you as you prepare your child during the summer months for the exciting routines that come with a new school year.
Please bring along any questions you may have. Due to the nature of this event, we are unable to accommodate children attending. They will have their own orientation visit during the day on Tuesday, September 8th. More details to follow.
Kindly RSVP by Thursday, May 21st.

Dear Parents of Year Six Children,
Our Year Six elementary trip is less than five weeks away and we are getting excited!
Please see below for some important details regarding the trip:
We will be departing Clanmore at 9am sharp on Monday June 1st, and returning Wednesday June 3rd at approximately 4pm.
The children have gone through the schedule and chosen areas of interest to them. We have also reviewed the packing list together (attached ​below), and added to it. It was composed by students as well as suggestions from Camp Tawingo.
Approximately one week prior to the trip, we will reach out to you to discuss any medications or particular needs that your child may have that we should be aware of.
The children have been great about asking questions about the trip at school. If you have any questions as a parent, please let us know. You can also look over the Tawingo Outdoor Centre website here: https://www.tawingooutdoorcentre.net/

If your child has a conflict making them unable to attend the trip, please let us know as soon as possible so that we can plan appropriately.

Sincerely,
The Upper Elementary Team

We recognize that it is a busy time of year for everyone and in the event you are not able to make it please consider sending a grandparent, aunt, uncle or nanny to come along and join us.
We will end our walk and gather for a picnic at the rolling hill (across from the school) at around 11:00 am. It would be wonderful if you could please bring a blanket and a Peanut & Nut Free litter less snack that can be shared with all our friends!
We will also enjoy our final music session with Miss Cosi, so come ready to celebrate the end of the year with singing and dancing!

Dismissal will be at usual time, but you are welcome to take your child straight after the picnic. If your child is full day, please note that we will take them back to the playground after the picnic.
We hope to see you there!

On June 8, we will be holding a fundraiser for elementary and middle school students. 2$ gets you dress-down while 5$ gets you participation in a talent show. The talent show will take place in the gym at 2 pm.
We encourage you to bring as much money as you can and support these children and we thank you for your support.

Clanmore Family Picnic
2026-06-11 11:30 - 13:30
Dear Clanmore Families,
We are absolutely thrilled to once again invite you to the Clanmore Family Picnic that will take place in the Southeast Sports Field located directly behind the school.
This family event invites you all to gather and celebrate the end of this amazing school year.
Please pack a picnic lunch, your sunscreen, and a blanket, and come along to enjoy the many fun fair activities coordinated by the Clanmore Staff.
Please do not park outside of the designated parking spots in the adjacent lot. We will provide you with alternative parking when the lot is full
A few Safety Reminders:

We ask that you please self-monitor. If you or your family feel unwell, please stay home.

As it is tick season, we encourage you to check your children and yourself after the event.

As this is a family event and the park is not fenced, we ask that you please keep your eyes on your children, especially the little ones.

Clanmore School will be open and available for washroom use.

Parking will be available at the “southeast” parking lot, with the entrance just past the school parking lot on Armiger Lane. It will be a busy place, so please use caution when driving and walking through. There is a bushy area near the entrance to the park. If you walk around it, you can avoid a great deal of the parking lot en route between the school and the field. We encourage any families living nearby to walk or bike to the event.

If you park your car on any side street, please park only on the east side

As is tradition, there will be snow cones and popcorn this year. These items will only be available at the school at the east porch near the Toddler playground, so be sure to grab a treat on your way in or out of the picnic!

In the event of rain, the picnic will be canceled. We will contact families via email. Unfortunately, there is no rain date.
