Day 4

TODAY AT IRWIN: 

• We have lots of leftover snacks from last night’s fundraiser. We will sell them at break for $1 a piece. There are chocolate chip cookies, chips, candy bags and juice. 

• For the months of December and January, OM Irwin school will be supporting local families by collecting items for the new Community Fridge which is located on the corner of 2nd Avenue NE and Cheadle Street East, across from the Great Plains College. The Community Fridge supports anyone who is struggling to access food and personal items. Each Friday, the collected items will be dropped off by staff and students at the Community Fridge. We ask that each grade group bring donations to their classrooms during their specific week. This week, donations will be brought in by the Grade 7 students.
