Join us to plan one of the year’s most beloved events – our Annual Spring Fair. This event is our largest fundraiser and funds many educational and extracurricular programs that our students enjoy throughout the year.
We are looking for assistance in coordinating this amazing event. An information meeting will be held **Tuesday, January, 28that 7:00 pm** in the school library for anyone who is interested in helping plan and coordinate. There are many different roles and ways you can help. Time requirements are flexible with your schedule and we will work together as a team to make this as easy and fun as possible.
A New Year’s invitation for you – join us for a meeting this year! We have only 5 more meetings left this year and it’s the best way to find out what is happening at the school. Come meet other parents and find out important information.
Our regularly scheduled meeting is moved to Wednesday, January 22nd, as school activities on Wednesday January 15th are cancelled due to the planned Strike Action. The agenda and draft December minutes are available for reference.
We hope that you are able to attend! Child minding is available.
