Silent Auction & Mystery Bag Donations
At this year’s Parent Social we are holding a Silent Auction and Mystery Bag Fundraiser. This is a call out to our parent community and local businesses to donate items for our auction and mystery bags!
Mystery bags will include a few larger ticket items like sports tickets, and ski passes, to smaller items such as a bottle of wine or gift certificate. Please consider tapping in to your network to help fill the bags with something fun! 100% of money raised goes towards enriching your child’s experience at LKS. Businesses will be recognized on the sponsorship poster and our Facebook page. Please email lambtonkingswaysocial@gmail.com to let us know what you can donate.
Vacancy – Environmental Committee
An opportunity is available for an enthusiastic volunteer or group of volunteers to work with school staff in creating an eco-friendly school environment. Volunteers will identify programming, activities, guest speakers or in-school presentations for students with funding provided by Parent Council. Past programs include Earth Week and Earth Day events, Earth Rangers and Birds of Prey presentations. If you are interested in this opportunity, please email Allison Needham (allison.needham@rogers.com) or Kerry Collings (collingskerry@gmail.com).
