🌟Food Festival! 🌟

We are excited to announce that our school will be celebrating Multicultural Week from April 27th to May 1st! This is a special time where we recognize, appreciate, and celebrate the many cultures that make up our wonderful school community.

 

This week includes school activities! But the highlight of the week is our Food Festival, where students have the opportunity to share their favourite dishes that represent their cultural backgrounds.

 

This much-anticipated event will take place during lunchtime on Friday, May 1st.

 

The Food Festival is entirely dependent on family donations, and we’re inviting our families to contribute by preparing and sharing a dish that represents their culture. This is a non-profit event, and we do offer reimbursement for any dishes made. Any extra money left over from our event will be donated to one of our school’s charitable initiatives.

 

If you are interested in participating in the Food Festival, please see Ms. Climenhaga, Mrs. Weisgerber, or Mrs. Rodych for more information!
