Veteran’s Food Drive
Dear Families,
In the spirit of November, we invite you to participate in our Veterans Food Drive to support the Veterans Association Food Bank. This meaningful initiative will run from November 4th to November 22nd, providing us with an opportunity to give back to those who have bravely served our country.
How You Can Help:
We encourage families to contribute by donating any of the following non-perishable items:
Needed Items:
- Baking Supplies: Brown sugar, yeast, flour, baking soda, baking powder
- Canned Goods: Meat, tuna, chili, stew, canned fruit, mushrooms, evaporated milk, pickles, condiments

Collection Process:
We have placed six collection boxes in the launch pad for donations.
Thank you for your generosity and support of our veteran community!
FOOD BANK CHALLENGE
Thank you so much to those of you who have donated thus far. Our community is a very generous one!
To finish off the last two weeks of the food bank drive we have devised a little competition between classes. This will allow the students to have some fun, do some math and help a great cause. We have assigned classes specific items of need. We are asking that each student bring the item that is designed to their class and we will have a friendly competition. If you have already donated or choose not to, no problem!
The items by class are listed below:
Kindergarten – a box of cereal
Grade 1 - granola bars or other individual snacks (pudding cups, apple sauce)
Grade 2 – Mr. Jamieson & Ms. Hanratty – bags of pasta
Grade 2 – Ms. Nicholls & Ms. Goss – Jars of pasta sauce
Grade 3 – Ms. Prazak & Mr. Cuculea – canned fruit
Grade 3 – Ms. McLeod & Ms. Gorrie – canned vegetables
Grade 4 – Ms. Summer & Ms. Talbot – canned soup
