If you tried to send an email to the Tennyson Ski Club coordinator on Wednesday or Thursday, the address was wrong.  Sorry about the confusion. The Ski & Snowboard page has been updated and the email address to use for John is tennysonskiclub@hotmail.ca.  Thank you to John for organizing this super club.

Christmas Generosity Request

From the school newsletter:

As you may be aware, Hastings Elementary is our sister school. They have asked us if we could provide two Christmas hampers for two families in need. A great idea is to have a whole class involved. If you are interested in leading this project with your class, please contact Mme Lavoie. She has the family’s profile and wish list. The Christmas hampers will be picked up by a social worker from Hastings Elementary on December 12th.

If you haven't donated yet, there's still time... the drive wraps up tomorrow, Wednesday, November 14. For more information, see our Winter Clothing Drive page.

Thank you to Sally Otto for arranging this year's Winter Clothing Drive.
