This spring marked an exciting milestone as UHS launched its very first squash team. More than 20 students stepped out courageously to learn the sport and competed for a place on the team. We extend our sincere gratitude to Unionville Athletic Club, especially Membership Director Joseph Deotto and staff, for generously providing practice facilities at no cost. We also thank Squash Ontario for their grant to subsidize equipment and travel expenses.
UHS fielded three teams at the Ontario Squash Championships in Niagara Falls, competing among 18 teams. Team One advanced to the quarterfinals—a very good achievement for a first time entry. Beyond the competition, students enjoyed visiting the Falls and building lasting memories. This pioneering effort has laid a strong foundation for the future of squash at UHS. Tryouts will be held this November as we prepare for an even stronger season ahead. Go Wolves!

YRDSB continues to encourage families to use safe transportation to and from school. We encourage students to use active school travel whenever possible. Active travel refers to any form of human-powered transportation, including walking, cycling, rollerblading, skateboarding, and scootering.
School Property
Students using any transportation device, whether electronic or not-electronic, must dismount before arriving on school property. This includes all sidewalks, pathways, and walkways on school grounds. Please note that the school is not responsible for lost or damaged equipment.
Provincial Regulations
These modes of travel offer many physical, mental, and community benefits. Please visit the Ontario website for a full list of regulations. Every cyclist under 18 must wear a properly fitting bike helmet. Some students may also choose to use electronically assisted devices, such as e‑scooters or e‑bikes. In Ontario, you must be 16 or older to ride an e-scooter or e-bike. When riding e‑scooters or e‑bikes, it is important that students follow all applicable municipal regulations to ensure their safety and the safety of others.
Municipal Regulations
Before riding any device, it is important for students and families to be aware of the regulations set by their local municipality. These may include minimum age requirements for operating electric devices, helmet laws, and other safety guidelines.
Respectful Riding
Pedestrians always have the right of way. Students are expected to ride with caution by slowing down, using a bell when approaching others, and passing on the left. Wearing reflective clothing is encouraged to increase visibility and promote safer travel.
For more information, parents are encouraged to visit:
