70 for 70!
As Wildwood School turns 70 years old this year we have a big ask, that’s $70,000 for 70 years, this will allow the purchase of upgraded audio technology to enhance learning and communications in the school.
FUN FACT: some of these items have already been approved to procure through our School Council during the October council meeting! Thank you for supporting our fundraising and Casino night, which make it possible to approve and pay for upgrades like this!
Education Matters is a platform that the CBE has developed to help schools with fundraising. Any donation over $20 receives a tax receipt, and the fees we pay for this CBE service are minimal.

Festive Foods
What is Festive Foods?
Our fun lunch program at Wildwood School is called Festive Foods. This program allows parents to purchase food for their child on specific dates through out the year. It not only provides fun food for the students, but it also serves as a valuable fundraiser for our school.
How Can My Child Participate?
Festive Foods is run on an online system called Healthy Hunger. All lunch orders are posted for Wildwood School and require a parent account to participate. You can sign up on the Healthy Hungry website and register your child.
(Unfortunately, due the timing of the food delivery, AM Kindergarten students are not able to participate.)
How Do I Register?
Visit www.HealthyHunger.ca and click on Register Student Account. Fill out the Parent Account Registration and select Create My Account. You will then click Add Student and fill out the required information to add each child that is participating. Once completed, you will have access to all lunches that the school has posted. Online payment is required.
What If I Already Have an Account?
If you already have an account with Healthy Hunger, simply log in and enter your child’s new grade and teacher information. **This will have to be updated every year in order to use your account.
What if I Have Questions?
For program information, please email or call the school directly. For any account issues please contact the Heathy Hunger team through their website.
*All lunch dates and information will be advertised through the Wildwood School WAG (Week at a Glance) email. You will also find all posted lunches on your Healthy Hunger Account.

FunScrip
FundScrip is an established, Canada-wide fundraising program in which supporters pay for their shopping (groceries, gas, home & garden, entertainment, restaurants, and much more) with gift cards bought from FundScrip (100’s of retailers to choose from); thereby automatically generating contributions to your cause. You’re just changing the method of payment! Families will need to set up their own account using the invitation code to support our school at www.fundscript.com invitation code: 9WZNDP.
Loveable Labels
Wildwood School has another awesome fundraising event selling Labels. Labels are a great way, to have lost items find their way back to your child rather than in the Lost and Found. Go to the fundraising website for more information and to support this great event www.Wildwood.lovablelabels.ca .
Once you are there you can set up your own account.
