Order your childs Art Cards! 

It is now time to order your child’s Art Cards online! All the classes are now busy working on art projects for our winter Art Card Fundraiser. PAC volunteers will take a photo of your child’s art and make it into 5 x 7 cards. These high quality cards will be sold as packages of six, including envelopes. They make great Christmas cards! You can place your order at https://ples.hotlunches.net. If you don’t have access to a computer, you can pick up a paper order form at Ms Blackwell’s desk. Order deadline will be November 17th. 

Halloween Dance

The Halloween Howl was a huge success. We raised a little over 2000 dollars, thanks to all the parents and families who donated equipment, baking, and their time to volunteer. We very much appreciate the teachers that participated throughout the evening, thank you!

Donations

A special thanks goes out to Sluggett Farms for their donation of pumpkins for the Pumpkin Run. To Lisa Jones for donating Tim Horton's Hot Chocolate and coffee for the field trip to Goldstream. And to Country Grocer for donating all the buns and hotdogs.

If you haven't had a chance to look at all the yummie Christmas chocolates yet, please do. This is a great fundraiser for our school. 25 per cent of all the proceeds go back to our school. Order deadline is November 26th. Go to http://purdysgpp.com/ and register.
