HOLIDAY BASKETS CONTRIBUTION
It is customary at Discovery School for our families to come together towards the Holiday Season and open their hearts to share with others in our community. This year, the school is looking at preparing 29 Holiday Baskets for our maintenance, support and security staff. We are asking for a family contribution of L150 to be sent before Friday, November 16. Please place your contribution in a sealed envelope with your family name, and send it to school or give it to one of your homeroom teachers. These proceeds will be used to buy the staples for the Holiday Baskets that will be given out before the Holiday Break.
This week your child will be reviewing all the Word Wall words with various chants and activities. The spelling challenge will be on Friday November 16th.
