This year, Dr. Roberta Bondar School is proud to participate in the 37th Annual Mayor’s Food Drive in support of the Calgary Food Bank. From December 1 to December 18, we invite students to bring donations of food and other essential items to school.
Acts of service, like contributing to the food bank, help students learn about empathy, social responsibility, and community engagement. Together, we can make a real difference for families experiencing food insecurity.
To help meet the Calgary Food Bank’s needs, each grade will focus on a themed donation:
- Kindergarten – “Birthday Party!”
Party supplies, cake mix, icing, candles, games, and small toys - Grade 1 – “Pasta Night!”
Pasta, pasta sauce, canned tomatoes - Grade 2 – “Baby Bundles!”
Diapers (sizes 1–6), baby formula - Grade 3 – “Protein Power!”
Peanut butter, beans, lentils (canned or dried) - Grade 4 – “Hygiene Help!”
Shampoo, conditioner, hand soap, deodorant - Grade 5 – “Grains Galore!”
Rice, cereal, oatmeal, flour - Grade 6 – “Garden Goodness!”
Canned vegetables, fruit, soup
Please check expiry dates and avoid glass containers so donations are safe and usable.
