It may be chilly and damp outside, but the SPG has warm and lively things planned for the month of November! Join us for an evening of board game fun on the 9th, and place your orders for our winter fundraising: delicious Purdys chocolates, made with sustainable cocoa; lip-licking Paradise Island Cheese packs; and beautiful, locally made art kits from McTavish Academy of Art. Full fundraiser details on the Fundraisers & Events page of the SPG website: https://selkirkparentgroup.com/fundraisers/.
Appreciation
- Dyakuyu to the team of volunteers who helped with the Halloween Bash! A special howl of thanks to the Kingfisher Leadership students for, well, leading the event; Danielle and family for organizing the games; and Leadership teacher Jhoanna Castillo for handling the multitude of event details. And, thanks to everyone who attended–it was a lively and fun evening!
- Arigatō to Angeline T. for joining the SPG executive as secretary–we’re excited to have you on board!
Angel Gifts
Later this month, we’ll launch the annual Angel Gift program, in collaboration with Our Place. Each class will sponsor gifts for people who would otherwise not receive anything special over the holiday season. Watch for more information from your class representative.
