It's the annual kindness campaign! If your child has a shirt from a previous year that they have outgrown, they can bring it along and share it with someone who may need a pink shirt. The Pink T-Shirt Day Society (www.nobullies.ca) has also donated t-shirts for our students - about 1/2 of our kids will get a free shirt again this year!

Kirsten's class is fundraising for their year end trip - one of their initiatives is a "Seed Sale" through West Coast Seeds.

If your child's class is not doing Scholastic book orders, you can still order books! Through the library, I will be placing orders monthly on the last Thursday of each month. Simply go online to https://canadaclubs.scholastic.ca/, select Wildflower School, and then Cavicchi, Anne.

You can see the results of their work in our main entry this week.
