Dear Parents,
We are pleased to announce that St.Bernadette Elementary will be hosting a multicultural dinner in celebration for our school’ s 30th Anniversary! The event will take place in the evening of Saturday, February 18, 2017 at the Parish Centre.
We would like to involve all current St. Bernadette families in this event and anticipate a fun-filled event showcasing the many cultures that make up our school community! There are many different ways for everyone to be involved, which include:
– Showcasing your family’s culture by setting up a table / booth at the event and providing cultural dishes to be served at the event. Families of the same cultures will be grouped together and can work together to create and display their booth as they wish.
– Becoming part of a committee that will organize different aspects of this event. Committees include Silent Auction, Entertainment Coordination, Student Art Projects, Invitations, Passports, Decorating, Theme Baskets, and Bar.
– Volunteering the evening of the event (ticket sales, helping at a booth, greeters, cleanup, etc.)
There will be a meeting on Monday, December 5th/16 at 7:00 pm in the school library to continue planning this event. Everyone is welcome to attend this meeting to ask questions, find out more details and to provide input for our celebration.
We would ask that each family send the information below as soon as possible to Stephannie Drysdale at fundraising@stbernadette.ca so that we may begin assisting families to coordinate the cultural groups that make up our school and the committees that will be formed.
On behalf of the children attending St. Bernadette Elementary School and all of the support staff, we thank you in advance for your consideration.
Warmest Regards,
Stephannie Drysdale
