Our Parent Society’s major fundraising event is a Casino night, once approximately every year and a half. Our Fundraising Coordinator on the School Council is Chris Paavola. He will request parent/caregiver volunteers to participate in this fun event closer to the date of the next Casino night.
Our School Council runs Fundscrip twice a year. Notices with order forms are sent home to parents/caregivers in November, and in April/May. This fundraiser sells gift cards to participants, with a portion of each sale coming to the school.
Christine Meikle School has participated in the Farm to Table fund raiser this year. This program sells fresh vegetables to participants at a great price point and is a perfect match for the school’s healthy eating initiative. There are a few different options available to purchase, along with the option to purchase a package that goes to the Calgary Food Bank. Vegetable orders are delivered prior to Thanksgiving.
