Memo for Garden Creek Parents and Guardians
Good morning Creeker
Families,
We have 3 weeks left
until the holidays... Ho Ho Ho.. still lots of learning to go!
Christmas
Bazaar – WOW! What another amazing event at our school
and a great kick off to Christmas ! The tentative tally of funds raised
is within ten thousand dollars. A final amount will come after our treasurer
does his thing. Thank you to all our parents for your donations of items, baked
goods, time and money to make this event so successful! Our
playground will certainly be on its way thanks to this support. Merry
Christmas!
Poinsettias
and Wreaths –We still have a few of these left by the library.
If you did not receive yours or pick it
up, please drop by the office.
Hour of Code
– a few of our classes are participating in Hour
of Code this week and it might just be a dance party theme – code away,
dancers!

next round of milk orders. Deadline for this is this Friday, December 7th.

Angel Tree -
Creekers Helping Creekers – Once
again this year, thanks to Mme. Cairns and her elves, we have an an angel tree set up in front of the office. You are
welcome to pick an angel from the tree and send in the item that is written
on that angel to support a family in need this Christmas. Items are due by

tax receipts I believe, for donations over $25 if you request it). Thank you
