Selkirk Parent Group (SPG) update – April 2024

SPG activities are budding just like the trees, shrubs and flowers all around us. The last term of school is here, and we’ve got many exciting things happening to take us to the end of the year.

Watch for details about an upcoming community education night and read on for two events already in the works!

Art Cards, Magnets, Puzzles, Blankets…

Mid-April brings our annual Art Cards fundraiser. Children prepare art specifically for this fundraiser. You’ll be able to order cards featuring their artwork, and many other items, too: magnets, puzzles, blankets, mugs … Even if you don’t order anything, you’ll have the artwork to keep!

If you do order something, remember to return the artwork to the school for scanning. Don’t worry, you’ll get it back when your order is filled. 

Many Hands Make … Delicious Dishes

Be sure to mark Saturday, May 4 on your calendar for a fun and tasty event: Multicultural Night. We’ll meet in the gym to taste delights from around the world, courtesy of YOU, our vibrant, diverse, multicultural Selkirk Montessori School community!

More details are on the way, but we’ll need volunteers to help organize, set up, bring food, and clean up. Contact Sarah Bolen at sbolen@inspiredentertainment.com, to take part.
