Support Earl Haig While You Shop!

Who doesn’t love a gift card to their favourite store under the tree?

If you’re considering giving gift cards this holiday season, why not order cards from the comfort of your own home while simultaneously supporting Earl Haig School Council? It’s a win-win! Click on over to FundScrip and see all of the retailers partnered with this fantastic Canadian fundraising platform. FundScrip provides monthly promotions that maximize the automated donation to our school. For example, this month a gift card to Old Navy will earn our school 10% of the face value of the gift card. You pay $100, then you get the $100 gift card and our council gets $10! You’ll find more details about the program in the Fundraising section of our Council’s website.

FYI: FundScrip recommends ordering your cards before mid-December to ensure delivery by December 24th!

Winter clothing swap cancellation

The winter outerwear swap scheduled for Wednesday, November 8th in the gym has been cancelled due to a lack of donations.

What has been donated already will be available as a “swap box” outside the school office. The cold weather is fast approaching, so please come by and see if the swap box has anything you need to fill out winter wardrobes. The swap box will be available until the end of next week at which point the rest will be donated to New Circles clothing donation program.
