Hi Parents!
Earlier this week we learned about the “Because I am a Girl” campaign. Warden Ave P.S. will be raising funds for this important charity for the next two weeks. We hope you and your family will contribute to this event. Here at Warden we empower girls to follow their dreams and accept no limitations based on gender.
To raise money in our class, we will be doing a class BUY IN! The way it works is simple: Each day, there is a specific privilege that students can pay to participate in. Almost every day costs $1 for the buy-in. For instance, tomorrow, if students bring in $1, they will be allowed to sit beside another friend who also brought in $1. Another example: On Wednesday, students who bring in $1 will be allowed to wear a hat of their choice from home. Your child can bring in all of their money for each activity tomorrow, or choose to bring it in per day (I’d prefer it all at once so we don’t lose anything). Ideally, it’d be great if you could donate for every day ($8 in total). Students who are not participating in the buy-in will be working quietly on whatever work we have that day.
Our class goal is $100 (each student buying into 5 activities each). I’d love to see everyone participating. As a class, we decided that this is an important cause because we are so blessed in Canada to have freedoms and opportunities. The students are willing to be very generous.
*** To participate in every activity: simply bring in $ 8
As always, if you have any questions, please feel free to email me through our class website or at [email protected] or write a note in the agenda.
Thank you in advance for any contribution,
Mr. McDonald
