Dance with us…

Come and dance with us this Thursday 530pm-730pm, May 17, in the school gym. The theme is ‘Happiness’, so wear what makes you happy! Admission is $2/child or $5/family. For $2 you can get pizza and a treat, and there will also be a bucket draw and silent auction for some fabulous prizes!

This is a fundraising event helps provide funding towards program enhancements beyond the regular curriculum such as Young Explorers (naturalist in residence), Outdoor pursuits (swimming, skiing, skating) and our year around music program.

The success of this event is always reflective of the generous support that we receive from our community!
