PURDY’S CHOCOLATES FUNDRAISER

You are invited to support our school with the sweetest of fundraisers. The Purdy’s Chocolates Fundraiser is back for another year. Although we pay the same price online as you would in store, Purdy’s donates 25% back to the school, which in turn helps to better our children’s experiences. This year’s turnaround is FAST! Ordering is available now with a closing deadline of Tuesday November 29, 2021.

You can reach our fundraiser HERE

Our customer code is 16280.  You will need this to log into our school fundraising account.

Please feel free to pass along the fundraising link to family, friends, and co-workers. 

Chocolate Pick Up will be between December 6th - 13th, with the pick-up location and time announced closer to the date.

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED

Winter Centerpiece Preparation

We are looking for 14 volunteers to help with the preparation of the whole school winter centerpiece activity.  This is a beautiful and unique craft that each child will prepare and bring home.  However, there is a lot of preparation required in order to facilitate this activity and we need lots of help! 

Date: Thursday December 8th

Location: TBD – either at the school or a nearby location

Time: 9:00-11:30am: need 6 volunteers, and/or, 11:30am-2:00pm: need 8 volunteers

Volunteers will assist with cutting boughs and greenery into smaller pieces.  You will need garden clippers for this activity, and gloves are recommended but not required.  Preparations will be done outside, and you will be required to stand for the task.

Please sign up HERE if you are interested.
