Art cards glue party
A big thank you to all the parents that helped glue the art cards. And a special thanks to Shelly who organized, photographed and edited all the art, and hosted the glue-party. They look amazing! We sold a lot of packages, so we made well $2,000 with this holiday fundraiser. Look for them in your child’s backpack today!
Raffle baskets
We would like to ask for your help with the basket raffle at our school holiday concert on Tuesday, December 18 and Wednesday December 19. Last year we raised over $2,000 with our raffle, so it's an important fundraiser and lots of fun for everyone. Each class is asked to gather items with a particular theme (see below); we will then assemble the baskets and sell tickets.
The tickets will be sold before and after school from Tuesday, December 11 until the start of the second concert. The winning tickets will be drawn at the last performance.
We have volunteers lined up to wrap the baskets and set them up in the foyer the week before the musical. If you can help with wrapping or set up, please let us know.
We would like to ask for a donation of an item (or small cash donation). You can leave your donation in the box in the classroom. Deadline for dropping off the items or cash is Monday, December 3rd. For cash donations, you can also go online to our hotlunch website, and choose the button ‘donations’. Thanks in advance for your contribution!
