Fundraising

  • Our biggest fundraiser of the year: ZUMBATHON 2024, is fast approaching!

    Our goal is to raise at least $25,000. If each student collects at least $125 in pledges, we will easily reach our goal. Remember that every little bit helps!

    This year will be the start of a 3-year initiative to raise money for new playground equipment for our school. A large portion of the money we raise each year will go towards new playground equipment for our school.

    When donating, please note the name(s) and grade(s) of the student(s) you wish to support in the “for campaign” notes box.

    Date & Time:
    On the morning of Friday, April 26th, the students of St. James & St. Ann’s will be participating in a ZUMBATHON. Classes will take turns doing Zumba (led by our very own Mrs. Lavrikova and others!) and other active games throughout the morning.

    Students will be dismissed early, at 12:15pm, on Friday, April 26 after a well-deserved hot-dog lunch. We invite families to join our free lunch. Bring a blanket and/or chairs and enjoy some food, socializing and well-deserved rest. We are hoping for excellent weather so that we can picnic on the field.
