 Hello St. Margaret Families!

It’s great to be back in full swing! This year, we will again be fundraising for Jump Rope for Heart. Please see the attached letter that describes how we can donate to such a worthy cause. If we are to beat heart disease and stroke, what a better way to Jump toward our goal of $2000.00!  

There are prizes to be won and games to play. Our Event Day for Jump Rope is Friday, May 10th. By going to the link, or using the QR Code, you can donate from Friday, April 26th to Friday May 24th. Students are also able to win gift cards on-line for their donations! Please see the link as there is a parent’s section that will take you to all you will need to participate in, not only donating, but to an on-line EASY Healthy Habits section that students can do to help them be healthy every day!  

When searching for our school, please remember to spell “St Margaret” without a period in “St” You do not need to print “School”. Let’s raise money and have fun for Jump Rope this year!

In the excitement of another Toronto Blue Jay baseball season, I have made a bit of a mess in my communications to staff, students and families about our upcoming ‘Blue Jay Day’.

Grade 7 and 8 students will be hosting a Blue Jay Day Wednesday April 10th. SchoolCashOnline orders will be accepted until Friday April 5th. If there are issues with SchoolCashOnline please contact Mrs. Goldrick at the Office: Nicole.Goldrick@wcdsb.ca

Here is the correct and original letter:

BLUE JAY DAY

St. Margaret is going to help kick off the Toronto Blue Jays 2024 season on Wednesday, April 10th, 2024.  The grade 7/8 classes will be hosting a BLUE JAY DAY and HOT DOG LUNCH!!

Everyone is invited to wear Blue Jay apparel or blue and white on this day. For a small donation, students will also be allowed to wear baseball caps all day!!  There will be an opportunity to eat a classic ballpark lunch…HOT DOGS!

The Grade 8 students will be leading the school in the Blue Jays song and doing the 7th inning stretch!  All students are welcome to bring their baseball gloves to play catch during recesses!

This HOT DOG LUNCH on Wednesday April 10th will be a fundraiser to support the Grade 8 Graduates (graduation celebration, yearbook, etc.).  If any parents are able to volunteer their time to assist with cooking hot dogs, please email heather.cater@wcdsb.ca

Each hot dog costs $2.00, each bag of chips costs $1.00, and each juice box costs $1.00. There will be mustard, ketchup, and relish supplied on the day so students will be able to put on their favourite toppings.  Everything can be ordered through SchoolCashOnline.

Orders will be due on Friday April 5th, 2024.
