Gledhill’s 90s Dance and Silent Auction is only 11 days away (is your babysitter booked?) and the fundraising crew has been hard at work planning an evening of FUN!

Help is needed with a few key things on the night of – setting up auction items, selling tickets at the door, 50/50 draw and clean up at the end of the night. Shifts are an hour only so you can still help out and have the rest of the evening to PARTY!

Today’s Hallowe’en Parade starts at 12:45pm and will take place either indoors or out depending on the weather. Parents are invited to attend, if they are able, either way. The formal Coffee and Conversation planned has been cancelled due to the weather, but parents are welcome to bring a mug of something and socialize outside after the parade – weather permitting.

We Scare Hunger Food Drive

The Grade 4 and 5 students in Rms 24 and 25 have been working hard to coordinate the annual, Gledhill “We Scare Hunger Food Drive”.  Every classroom in the school has a box ready to receive donations of non-perishable, nut free food items. Boxes will be collected from the classrooms on Thursday, November 1st. All food will be donated to the Daily Bread Food Bank.
