Weekly Update: Short Week, Baking and Magazines
by Prospect Lake PAC - Wednesday, 19 October 2016, 7:54 AM
 

Hello Parents,

 

The weekly update mail is coming out early this week because Friday is a non-instructional day at the school (no students).

 

For those who attended the PAC meeting last night, thanks for good discussion on all topics. We’ll include a link to the minutes in the next update email.

 

Calling all bakers!

The Grade Five class will be running the concession for the dance on Oct 28th. And would appreciate any baked good donations. If you are available to help, please bring your baked goods to the multipurpose room the morning of Oct 28th.

Thank you from the Grade Five class!

 

Last week for QSP Magazine Fundraiser

This coming weekend wraps up our special QSP magazine fundraiser at the school. If you have any last orders please make sure they're in by Monday at the latest. After that, orders can be made all year long but only online at http://www.qsp.ca/4297669.  Don't wait too long if you're planning holiday gift subscriptions as it can take a few weeks for your first magazine to arrive.  Our school earns about $10 for every subscription sold which all goes into amazing resources for our kids.  Your help makes a huge difference!

 

Last Minute Opportunity: Resources & Agencies

We got some last minute notice from COPACS for parents interested to learn about community resources and agencies on the South Island/Peninsula. The events is today, Wednesday, October 19th at 7pm. Our District School Counselor Shannon Toronitz will be presenting on:

 

-       South Island community resources and agencies for families and children's mental health

 

-       Family supports, parenting resources and agencies including grief/loss, separation/divorce, learning supports.

 

Bottles Bottle Bottles

The bottle drive has been tentatively scheduled for Saturday, November 19th. We will confirm in the next update if this date works for all parties involved.

 

Family Halloween Dance & Dinner - hold the date!

Come join your community of Prospect Lake families for an evening of fun and a chance to get to know each other. Friday, October 28. 5 - 8:00 PM in the school gym. Get your costumes ready! Please, nothing gory or too scary and no weapons. Enjoy the concession, family dance, door prizes and more.
