CHEESE CAKE & COOKIE DOUGH delivery on Monday April 4th, 2011

  • April 3, 2011 4:48 pm

Thank you very much to all the families who purchased any items from our Sweet Success fundraising.
The delivery will be held near the lunch area at Germain school on Monday April 4th, 2011 between 2:30 and 4:30 PM

We sold 1180+ items which is more than last year. That is a lot of items to distribute. The big rush is during the first hour so if you can make it after 3H30 it will be faster for you to get your order.

See you tomorrow afternoon.

Your PTA

Note: We are still accepting volunteers for the distribution of the items. Come as early as 1h30 PM if you can help thank you.

Last push for the Cheesecake and Cookie Dough fundraising

  • March 20, 2011 3:37 pm

Dear Parents,

Two more days and the Sweet Success PTA fundraiser will be over. This Tuesday, March 22, 2011 is our last day. Please make sure to send your envelope with your order and the the corresponding dollar amount by Wednesday, March 23rd. in the morning. These cheesecakes as well as all the other items are truly excellent, so even if you can buy one only, it will still be enjoyable and will help your PTA.  For each item that is purchased, the PTA makes five dollars.

We still have plenty of prizes to win with the barrel of monkey raffle. If you have sold, or you know you will sell a minimum of  four items, please sign your child’s voucher and have him or her bring it back to school. We will have one last raffle tomorrow on Monday, March 21st. We still have the two razor scooters that no one has yet won.

Thank you for your support,

The Germain PTA

Dear Germain Parents – The Yearbook Committee is planning on being on campus tomorrow, Friday March 11, to take photos of the students that were not present on the days that the class photos were taken for the 2010/2011 school year.

We want to have photo of all of our students in the yearbook!

Tomorrow, starting at 8:00 am, yearbook committee members will be going to each class and asking for the students that didn’t get their photo taken to step outside for a quick snapshot. 

The final opportunity to have the missing photos taken will be next Friday, March 18.
