Casino Fundraiser Volunteers Needed – Nov. 3 & 4

The casino fundraiser for Elboya School is Tuesday November 3 and Wednesday November 4 at Cowboys Casino. This is the MAIN fundraising event for the Elboya School Fundraising Society and only happens every other year.

The last casino brought in ~$80,000 that has gone towards technology, residencies, and more to support our kids and our school!

To make the casino happen, we need to fill 36 volunteer positions over those 2 days and nights. Each volunteer shift represents over $2000 in fundraising revenue for the school. No knowledge of gambling is needed to volunteer, all training will be provided at the casino event. A meal, snacks, and refreshments are also included for volunteers. Sign up for a volunteer shift and meet some other members of the Elboya School community! https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C0D4FA8AE23A6FFC61-65703161-elboya#/

Parent Discussion Night – October 22 – 6:30 – 8:00 pm

Join the Elboya School Council for a discussion night with Aliki Avdicos and Danny Cooper. Ask questions, share your views, learn about the school and meet other parents. Light refreshments will be provided! Please RSVP to elboyaschool.chair@gmail.com if you plant to attend. Feel free to submit any questions or areas you would like discussed in your RSVP.

1^st Fun Lunch – A&W

Hooray, fun lunches are back!

The first fun lunch for all students will be on October 21 and will be from A&W.

Go to www.Healthyhunger.ca to sign up and order. Orders must be in by end of day today (Friday).

Fun Lunch Volunteers

We are looking for parents to come in over the lunch hour to help distribute lunches to the kids. For full school fun lunches we especially need extra parents to deliver to the 5 & 6 classes.

If you have your volunteer clearance and can carve out some time over lunch to come to the school, please consider signing up! It’s a lot of fun to see the kids and meet some other parents, too!
