Thank you to the many families who have already signed up to bring a gift item or food item as part of our Christmas Giving Tree.  The link to the electronic sign up was emailed to parents last week.  Our campaign will run from December 15th.  Using the same process as when we have parents sign up for conferences, you will simply select the item you would like to purchase, and if you want to select another item you simply have to add another item.  Once you have purchased your item(s), your child may bring them to the school in the morning and place them in the collection bins outside of the Library, and your child will be given an ornament to place on the Christmas tree.  Any gift cards that are purchased should be brought directly to the office by your child. 

We have 2 sets of 2 FRONT ROW tickets up for grabs to our upcoming Christmas Play.  The lucky winners can choose from the Matinee or the Evening Performance on December 15th.  It is easy to enter!  Just LIKE, FOLLOW us AND COMMENT on our upcoming posts on Facebook and / or Instagram (accessible on the bottom of our website) during the week of December 4-9.  We will announce the winners on our social media on December 10.  Good luck!

Just a reminder that during December, January and February we switch to our “winter uniform”.  No shorts or skorts are to be worn during those months, so please put those away until March!

On Monday, December 12th we encourage all students and staff to participate in a special dress down day to kick off our Christmas Spirit Week!  Come dressed as your favourite character from a Christmas movie or book.  Bring $2 to support the St. Vincent de Paul Society.
