Volunteers for Field Trips

Thanks to all the parents who volunteered to join us on our field trip to Children's Festival on May 25. We can't do these trips without you! We have no more room on the May 25 Children's Festival trip. Stay tuned for information regarding our Heritage Park field trip on June 8 (Ms. Hansen already has 4 volunteers for this trip!)

Hooray!!! Our school cookbook is finally completed and off to the printers! If you would like to purchase one (or more), please complete the blue order form that went home with your child last Friday. The cost to purchase one is $20. You can also purchase additional copies if you wish to give them to friends or relatives. We hope to have a sample copy in the school office by Wednesday in case you wish to look at it prior to purchasing it. The profit from the sale of this cookbook will be donated to Brown Bagging for Calgary's Kids. We would appreciate having all orders returned by May 19th. Thank you for your support!
