Help
Eradicate Polio! - This year we are
continuing our Creekers Change the World initiative
with our continued support in efforts to end polio. We will be collecting
toonies from Tuesday October 15th until Monday October 21st. All profits
go to the vaccines that will be used in third world countries to help stop the
spread of Polio. Your child will make their mark as the stamp their
purple pinkies on the map of the world. Help us stamp out polio in 2019!
Did You Know??? – Another part of Creekers
Change the World is around our school community being more aware and responsible
for our environment. DID YOU KNOW that by the end of the school year, at our current rate, our
students would have consumed 17, 280 cartons of milk.. and that DOES NOT
include the Ks who would be starting milk after Christmas? These cartons ARE
NOT recyclable at the school level – but they COULD be recycled at home.
We need solutions and we are reflecting on this through both the school level
and through our community. Change is coming for a greener
Creek – be a part of the solution! Come to the PSSC subcommittee meeting
on Wed October 30th at 6:30 to discuss this and more
