TD Walk to Breakfast – Wed, Oct 4

MDJH will be participating in the TD Kids Eat Smart Walk to Breakfast on Wednesday, October 4th.

$1 is a breakfast for a child. To donate, please visit http://kidseatsmart.ca.

With the increase in cost of groceries and the number of students in need of this program, we truly need the support.

Thanks so much for your help with this!

Women’s History Month

October is Women’s History Month in Canada, a time to celebrate the women and girls from our past, and our present, who are contributing to a better, more inclusive Canada.

In 1992, the Government of Canada designated October as Women’s History Month, marking the beginning of an annual celebration of the outstanding achievements of women and girls throughout Canada’s history.

This year’s theme, Through Her Lens: Celebrating the Diversity of Women, emphasizes the importance of recognizing the achievements and contributions of women from diverse backgrounds. It focuses on the unique perspectives, experiences, and challenges faced by Indigenous women; women from 2SLGBTQI+ communities; and newcomer, racialized, and migrant women.

Let’s continue to honour women who don’t accept the status quo and fight hard to improve the lives of all women in the country.

Thanksgiving Food Drive

To help restock the shelves of local food banks, we are holding a Thanksgiving Food Drive from October 2nd to the 6th.

Most food banks are still struggling with high demands placed on their resources in the month prior to schools reopening.

The most needed items that food banks are short of are:

tin meat
tin tuna
tin beans
pasta
pasta sauce
peanut butter
tin soups & stews
macaroni & cheese
tin/powdered milk
cereal
baking supplies

The top class in each grade level will receive an ice cream party, and the overall top class will receive a pizza party.

If you are bringing in items already in a bag, please write the homeroom number and number of items on the bag, or on a piece of paper attached to the bag.

Thank you for your help!
