CBC Fair

A huge thanks to all who supported our Christmas fair yesterday. We made enough to feed 5 families.

 

As you may know the CBC feed a family campaign is well underway. Their goal this year is to raise 60,000 dollars necessary to feed 1500 needy Fredericton families  and they have until Friday to do so. In the past, students in Mme Whalen's classes have been able to raise enough money through their 'entrepreneur project' to feed several families and adopt an instrument for the New Brunswick Youth Orchestra.

Today, during nutrition break,  in the science lab(food items only) and at noon in front of the theatre, 6EFG will be selling their very own original goods. You will find anything from food items to jewelery, Christmas cards and unique stickers to smoothies all with a personal and Canadian touch. What an easy way to get some Holiday shopping done for friends and family. All profits go to  the two organizations mentioned above.

 

Thank you in advance for your support

CBC Feed a Family

 

As you may know the CBC feed a family campaign is well underway. Their goal this year is to raise 60,000 dollars necessary to feed 1500 needy Fredericton families this holiday season and they have until Friday to do so. In the past, students in Mme Whalen classes have been able to raise enough money through their economy project to feed up to 7 families and adopt an instrument for the New Brunswick Youth Orchestra.

 

On Wednesday, during nutrition break,  in the science lab and at noon in front of the theatre, 6EFG will be selling their original goods. You will find anything from food items to jewellery, Christmas cards to smoothies. What an easy way to get some Holiday shopping done for friends and family. All profits go to  the two organisations mentioned above.

 

Thank you in advance for your support.
