Grade 8 Graduation

Dear Parents/Guardians,

Graduation is quickly approaching for our grade eight class.  This event greatly depends on parent involvement to make the day as special as possible not only for our graduating class but families as well. Traditionally grade seven parents have supported this event by volunteering their help during the day and evening to set up for the ceremony and reception and we hope to continue this role this year.

The parent council graciously donates money towards this event.  This money goes towards supporting the actual graduation ceremony including the awards that the graduates receive.  We still, however, need to raise funds to cover the cost of the Graduate Dinner/Dance.

We are hoping you will consider a donation in some form.

• If you would like to donate cash, we are happy to accept any amount that you can give.  Cheques are to be made out to Fern Avenue Public School.  Cash donations can be brought to Vera Ciric.

• If you would like to donate something towards either of the events, please contact email vera.ciric@tdsb.on.ca.  We will gratefully accept all kinds of donations such as:

·        Water, for the Reception

·        Paper cups / plates / napkins / cutlery / table cloths

·        Snack platters (fruit, veggies)

·        Room decorations (balloons, streamers, etc.)

·        If you have a particular skill, area of expertise or some spare time that you will be willing to share, this would also be of great help.  Please also contact the email noted above. This could involve:

·        Set up

·        Clean up

·        Decorations

Thank you for your consideration and support,

The graduation committee.
