November 13th Agendas

PSPA November News

ALIEN SKATING:  We hope everyone who attended the Family In-Line Skate Night on October 11th enjoyed themselves - the event had a tremendous turn out, and it was so fun and rewarding to see all the smiling faces, and everyone’s impressive improvement in skills by the end of the evening.  

As mentioned at the event, the PSPA paid for in-line skating residency program, and for the family evening event - so a big thanks to the parents who attend meetings and bring forward ideas such as these, and to everyone who contributes to our fundraisers which pay for this kind of stuff!!  And a HUGE thank you to our school for coordinating it all!

COOKIE DOUGH: And speaking of supporting our fundraisers…  When cookie dough forms went out in October, the PSPA presented a goal for our school families to sell a combined 200 boxes.  WELL!  We are VERY pleased to inform you all, that we CRUSHED that goal by selling a whopping 338 boxes, and between the cookie dough sales, and the donations we received, the Pineridge School Parent Association earned approximately $2,250.00 in profit during this fundraising campaign!  THANK YOU SO MUCH to those who participated!  

PS: Just some honorable/brag-worthy mentions: the top selling student sold 37 boxes ($644.00 worth)!  There was also a $615.00 order, and a $505.00 order well… another for over $300.00, 4 over $200.00, and 13 over $100.00, and 25 students qualified (by selling over 5 boxes each) for a chance to win one of the 4 $25.00 gift cards prizes we were giving away!  (The winners were announced on our website and facebook page on October 20th.)

COOKIE DOUGH PICKUP:  Cookie dough orders will be available for pick up on November ___, between 3:15pm - 3:45pm from the school gymnasium.  Should you be unavailable during this time, please contact Karen MacKinnon, PSPA President at 403.689.3064 or via email: karenmyyc@gmail.com to make other pick up arrangements.

TOY BINGO SAVE THE DATE: On November 24th, the PSPA is hosting a TOY BINGO at the Pineridge Community Hall, located across the street from our school.  The event will run from 6:00pm-7:30pm that Friday evening, and all Pineridge families will be welcome to attend.  Children MUST attend with an adult, and we hope you will join us for this event!!  Further information will go home in the coming weeks, but this will be a very fun event, (and there will be approximately $800.00 in toy prizes to be given away!!), so please, mark your calendars!!

NEXT MEETING: The next School Council & PSPA meetings will be on November 13th, from 6:00pm-7:30pm, at the school.  Please arrive early, as the doors will be locked, and the buzzer will not be manned to permit entry once the meetings begin.  Hope you can make it!
