Last chance to order Purdy’s 

Last chance to get your Easter Purdy’s order in! The order deadline is this Sunday, March 4th. This is a great fundraiser for our school. You’ll pay the same price for your online order of Easter chocolates as you would in the store. But this time Purdy’s will give 25 per cent of all the proceeds back to the school. All funds raised go directly to our children. You can invite family members, friends and co-workers to place their orders through us too! Go to http://purdysgpp.com. Questions? Call Holly at 250-479-0190 or email hraas@hotmail.com.

Used Book sale

The library is collecting gently used children’s books for the Spring Used Book Sale on Tuesday, April 24^th. If you wish to donate any used children's books, please drop them off in the box outside the library or give to Mrs. Bourdon or Ms. Gaudet. This will be a fundraiser for our School Library that the children will help organize. We thank you for your support!

Spring Fair

The Spring Fair, our PAC’s biggest fundraiser of the year will take place on May 17. We will be asking parents to help us with donations and organization for our basket raffle. The basket raffle is one of our most popular events and we'd like to make this year even better. If you can help or have suggestions, please contact Suzanne Richards @ <span lang="EN-US" style="color:#0070A8">suzannekrichards@gmail.com</span>.

Soon, there will be boxes in each classroom with an assigned theme. We will be accepting donations of items, gift certificates etc. If you have items that you'd like to donate but don't align with your child's classroom theme let us know and we'd be happy to help. If you know of a business that would be willing to make a donation, please contact Suzanne Richards to get a requisition form.
