Library Volunteers

• Volunteer opportunities are available at the elementary school library, for anyone who is comfortable using computers. Please contact Ms. Francescini, or drop by the library so she can explain the jobs.

 

Fruit Program

• Thanks to a Feeding Futures grant from the BC government, we are able to offer a daily selection of Fruits and Vegetables for Grab and Go at each of the campus offices. Kids are delighting in stopping on a regular basis to pick up an apple, banana or maybe even a strawberry!
• We could use some adult volunteers to help manage this program.  If you are interested in getting involved, please contact Emily Reilly, at . Many hands will make light work!

 

Cone Set Up Needed at Elementary Campus

We are looking for an individual or a few to help with setting up cones in the morning before 8:30 AM.  This typically takes 15 minutes and would be ideal for those parents who need volunteer hours and need to drop off at before school care.  Any parent(s) are welcome to help with this task and it would be greatly appreciated.  There will be a training set up to know where to place cones and signs.  Please contact Jennifer Watson if you are interested.

Middle School Prayer Club  

Description: Every Tuesday at lunch, Middle School students come together to seek God in prayer, lifting up our families, our school, our country, and the world. We take time to talk to God, thank Him for His blessings, encourage one another, and bring our worries and joys before Him. As we pray for our friends, families, school, and community, we also grow in our faith together. Our time is about more than prayer; it is an opportunity to share meals, laughter, fellowship, and build meaningful relationships. These gatherings have been a true blessing, reminding us of God’s faithfulness and the beauty and strength of growing together in Christ.   

For more info, contact Mrs M. Edema:

The Well 

The Well is our student-operated Middle School snack store, offering a variety of snacks and treats for students to purchase during lunchtime. The store is open every Thursday during lunch and provides students with a fun opportunity to enjoy a snack while developing valuable skills such as responsibility, teamwork, and customer service.

Please note that The Well is intended as a snack option and is not a replacement for lunch. Students are expected to bring or have access to a regular lunch each day.
