We need a coordinator for our upcoming Chili Night on Thursday, November 19, 2026!
The Chili Night is a well loved event run in the evening, concurrently with the Book Fair and Parent-Teacher interviews. However we can’t run it without someone taking on the lead coordination!
If you are interested or if you have any questions please reach out to Alta Vista PS School Council at sc-altavistaps@ocdsb.ca as soon as possible!!
Get ready — our annual Snow Out Blow Out Consignment Sale is happening Saturday, November 7 at 12 p.m. in the school gym!
This is a great chance to clear out your closets and gear up for winter while supporting our school community. The sale includes winter clothing and gear for all ages — from babies to adults — including snowsuits, boots, skates, skis, mittens, and more.
50% of all sales go directly to the Alta Vista School Council to fund initiatives that support our students and enhance their school experience. Seller keeps the other half, or you can donate the entire revenue.
Date: Saturday, November 7, 2026
Drop-Off: Start swinging by the school gym at 11 a.m. to drop off the gear you’d like to sell.
Shopping: Sale runs from 12-1pm, so come by anytime to shop for new-to-you winter items.
Payment: Purchases can be made by cash or e-transfer (cash preferred).
We hope to see you there!

Admission is free! There will be goodies, and juice boxes for sale as a council fundraiser.
In order to keep this event as eco-friendly as we can, we’re encouraging families to bring their own reusable dish ware for their movie night food and snacks. Families are encouraged to bring cups or water bottles that can be refilled in the kitchen.
Children are welcome to wear their PJs and bring blankets, pillows and stuffies to get comfy in the gym. Children must be accompanied by an adult. Please familiarize yourself with rules and expectations.
Please consider bringing nut-free baked goods (homemade or store bought) for the concession by dropping them off at the office on the day of or bringing them to the movie night.
