Happenings This Week

Principal for a Day

In case you see your child hunting around in between couch cushions or breaking into their piggy banks over the next couple of days, rest assured it’s all for a good cause!

Play EH! is having a draw this Wednesday the 27th for “Principal for a day” (to take place on Thursday, February 28th).  Students who want a chance to win need to bring in $2 to enter their name in the draw. Two names will be drawn — one for the morning and one for the afternoon. As an added bonus, Principal Root & Vice-Principal Ng will take the students out for lunch together!

All proceeds from the draw will go to Play EH!

Pink Shirt Day

Bullying is a major problem in our schools, workplaces, homes, and online. Pink Shirt Day aims to raise awareness of these issues, as well as raise funds to support programs that foster children’s healthy self-esteem. 

Earl Haig PS will be participating in Pink Shirt Day this Wednesday, February 27th — please encourage your child to wear pink that day to take a stand against bullying and to stand up for their peers.
