Raffle baskets at the Spring Fair

As part of our Spring Fair on Thursday, May 17, 2018, the PAC will be displaying a variety of Raffle Baskets for you to win! In order to make this a successful event we are asking that every student contribute one item.  To make things easy for you, we’re happy to accept Gift Cards or cash/cheque donations in any denomination. Each classroom has a box to collect the donations. However, we appreciate any donation to any basket that works for you. Below is what we’re collecting for and which classroom has that donation box. Please think about what you can contribute over Spring break and bring your item to the boxes in the classroom beginning of April.
The raffle baskets will be displayed in the school foyer the week leading up to the Spring Fair. Tickets will be sold during the Spring Fair and Baskets will be raffled at the end of the evening on May 17. Please contact your PAC if you’ve got any questions.
The themes are: Division 1 and 2 – Family Night; Division 3 – Spa; Division 4 – Gardening; Division 5 and 11 – Lego; Division 6 and 8 – Gourmet Food; Division 7 and 12– Arts/Crafts; Division 9 and 10 – Backyard Fun & Games.

Used Book sale

The library is collecting gently used children’s books for the Spring Used Book Sale on Tuesday April 24th. 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!
