Since school council elections are now over, it is safe to attend school council meetings for the rest of the year!

Remember, you do not need to be part of the executive committee or a member at large to attend – we encourage all parents or caregivers to join us. Please join us at our next meeting on Tuesday, October 16th at 7:00 PM (childcare is provided) to learn more about what the staff, parents and community are contributing to the education of Earl Haig’s student body. Have a great idea for a new initiative at the school? Fancy forming a fabulous fundraiser but can’t make the council meeting? Then please email your ideas or questions to earlhaigschoolcouncil@gmail.com!

Hope to see you there!

Please join us on Tuesday, October 16th from 7pm to 8:30pm in the school Music Room (basement) for our next School Council meeting. (Please note, childcare is available.)

At the meeting, you’ll learn about upcoming events, volunteer opportunities, hear updates from Principal Root, and you’re encouraged to share any ideas or suggestions you may have. You don’t need to be on the council to attend – everyone is welcome!

Do you have any questions for the Principal? Send them his way in advance of the meeting using this quick and easy form.

Hope to see you there!

Whether you’re pro- pumpkin spice latte or not, October is here and Earl Haig School Council is gearing up for our upcoming Pumpkin Patch fundraiser!

Please save the date! Thursday, October 25th (from 7:30am on in the Kindergarten play yard) to buy a HUGE pumpkin and a seasonal baked good or two. There will be jars of honey available (a limited supply) and we’re offering FREE coffee again this year to help you start your morning off on the right foot.

Our generous pumpkins are $7 each and are the perfect blank slate for your pumpkin carving artistry. You can pay for your pumpkin in the morning at the sale (cash only!) and leave it in the Kindie yard (labelled with your name) until you take it home at the end of the day.

Call for volunteers!

Interested in helping out? We will need bakers to donate a breakfast friendly baked good (please, no nuts!). Bakers can bring their yummy goods to the office the day before or to the Kindergarten yard the morning of the sale.

We will also need volunteers to help unload the pumpkins first thing in the morning and to help with sales during the event (7:30am – 12:30pm). To volunteer for day-of help, please sign up here or email us at earlhaigschoolcouncil@gmail.com.
