Sign Up for a Slice of Fun!

Our next Pizza Lunch is taking place next Friday. If you haven’t pre-ordered yet, be sure to get your order in before Wednesday, October 30th. Ordering always closes two days before pizza day.

Sign up and pay online via Munch a Lunch (pro tip: you can place your order for the whole year and never worry about it again!). You can order cheese or pepperoni pizza ($2.50 per slice), gluten free and dairy free pizza ($3.00 per slice), and juice boxes ($1.00 each), too!

All students are welcome to participate, but for children in the before-and-after care at Earl Haig, please be sure to select their lunchroom teacher and room from the drop-down list instead of their classroom teacher.

If you aren’t able to order by credit card online, no worries! Send an email to Polly and she will help make other arrangements.

Bakers, we need you!

Please contribute something yummy to our Pumpkin Patchhappening this Friday! The bake sale table is always a great success, so we’d love to have as many items as possible to accommodate all the lovely humans who want to purchase treats.

Muffins, cookies, whole loafs, anything goes as long as it is nut free (and delicious). We would also really love to be able to have a variety of gluten free or dairy free treats to offer (please label these, if you can).

***Please drop-off your labeled baked goods to the office on Thursday, October 24th.

P.S. Need some ideas, check out this TDSB recipe book.
