At our last school character assembly, students in the CIA group shared information about this year's school focus on fundraising for the the Free the Children campaign. The challenge was put forward to all classes in the school to identify a way to raise funds to purchase a goat for a family in the same village of Kenya that we supported last year in building a school. The goat provides the family with a source of nutritious milk and sustainable income. Each goat costs $50. Some examples so far:
Ms. Wong (Gr. 2) and Ms. Seehra's (Gr. 5/6) classes are working together to create hot chocolate packages for sale throughout the winter months.
Grades 7 and 8 classes are hosting a holiday event at school to celebrate the upcoming holidays. Students will donate funds by purchasing popcorn and treats to attend a movie afternoon.
Thank you to the BHES community for your generous support!
