Only 4 days left to order your Purdy’s Chocolates!

This is a great fundraiser for our school. We pay the store price for the chocolates, and then Purdy’s donates 25% of all the proceeds back to our school. All funds raised go towards supporting our children.  Family, friends, and colleagues are encouraged to orders with us too; spread the word!

  • Order deadline is Tuesday February 28, 2023.
  • Orders and payments are done online through the Purdy’s Fundraiser Website. (Customer #16280)
  • Chocolate orders will be ready for pick-up sometime the week of March 13th.

For a detailed description on how to order, please see the Purdy's Chocolates Easter Fundraiser page

HOT LUNCH

The MunchaLunch system has the remaining hot lunch dates available for ordering (March thru June).  The hot lunch program is meant to be a fun opportunity for the students.  If this poses a financial hardship for your family, please contact us.

GRADE 5 BABY-TODDLER PHOTOS 

This is a message for families with a child in this year's graduating Grade 5 class.  It's time to take a few minutes to go back in time and reminisce over baby-toddler photos.  If you could please find one photo of your child in their younger days and send it to Wendy at wendy_bird@outlook.com , that would be greatly appreciated.  Please include your child's name (**as they would like to see it) along with their photo.  These photos will be used in their yearbook.  If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to email Wendy.
