Thank you to The Filling Station
and the Campbell family for their generous donation and time, Canadian
Wholesale Club, Carnival for Kids at Heart, Fatburger, Opa, and the Steed
family and the Powell family for helping to secure some great prizes. In
addition Robert Richmond from Head to Toe Safety for donating a custom banner
that will be used for our Carnival for many years to come. We are so proud of
our students and their work for charity this holiday season. A challenge was
put forth for student playing at the carnival to put the name Adopt-A-Family
instead of their own name, and it was touching to see just how many tags were
for Adopt-A-Family. This displays the character and generosity of our kids and
as a result, one of the prizes is going to a family. Thanks to the Fish
Creek grade 1 teachers for bringing over their kids to be a special part of our
day.
Congratulations to all the winners
and the students responsible for coordination of the carnival.
ADOPT A FAMILY has been a huge
success for the families in need this holiday season. Due to the generosity or
our families and the work of our students in the carnival and bake sale, we had
enough money to adopt a fourth family. Special thanks to Superstore in
Shawnessey for their generous donation and discount, Save-On-Foods, Superstore
and Home Depot for all donating gift cards for our families, Bath and
Body Works, Bluenotes and Bootlegger at Southcentre for making our dollars stretch well
beyond our budget! The students are busy wrapping presents as our fitness room
has turned into Santa’s Workshop for a few days. A huge thank you to all of our
MidSun Families for taking 99% of the tags from our Christmas tree and
purchasing gifts for individual family members! The spirit of giving is
definitely in the air J
