Terry Fox Run
This year our school will be participating in the Terry Fox run in late September. We will be continuing with our Toonies for Terry fundraising campaign, which benefits cancer research. You and your family can make a donation in any amount online by clicking here . Students are also encouraged to bring in their donations to their classroom teachers. Our goal as a school community is to raise $5, 000.00. If we meet our goal Mr. Fen-Mac and Mrs. Lauder will shave their heads and Miss Laslo cut her hair in support of the Terry Fox Foundation. Let’s start fundraising!

Calgary Stampeders' Coat Drive
Panorama Hills School has joined a city-wide initiative called the Calgary Stampeders' Coat Drive. From now until October 24, we are asking Panorama Hills School families to consider donating winter coats for some of our city's homeless and less fortunate (some of which are the same ages as our very own students). Students can bring these gently used coats to school and give them to the Physical Education staff (Ms. Atwal and Mr. Fen-Mac) who will collect them on behalf of the school. This is a great opportunity for our children to practice the virtue of Compassion and help those in need; we appreciate any assistance your family can provide.
