wanted to provide a quick update regarding our fundraising and school
related initiatives for the upcoming school year. Our School Council is
proud to support the numerous
fundraising initiatives, and our fundraising efforts <strong>SAY ACCOMPLISHMENTS! </strong>

year, we are rolling out a few new items that we are excited to share
with you. You will see these appear on School Cash Online during the
next few weeks. Should you wish
to participate in any or all of our fundraising initiatives we would
like to thank you in advance for your support. Feedback from our
community in the past has resulted in a new item “West Bayfield Open
Donations” which has been added to School Cash Online.
Families are now able to donate any amount of money to our school in
lieu of participating in the fundraisers that are listed.</span></p><p class="x_MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-CA" style="font-family:"montserrat light";"> </span></p><p class="x_MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-CA" style="font-family:"montserrat light";">To assist with our planning, administration has worked closely with our School Council to provide a list of “<strong><em>identified spending areas</em></strong>”
so that our fundraising efforts
are transparent and targeted. There are a number of school related
areas that our fundraising efforts will be supporting this year. Some
of these include: an upgrade to our sound system in the gym, new items
to support technology within our school, an electronic
outdoor sign to promote school related events and subsidizing the cost
of field trips by $10 for every student K - 8.

some of our fundraisers, such as hot lunch and milk run throughout the
school year, there will be a few that will occur during a specific time
frame. We feel it is important
to share that while the next few months may appear busy, our focus will
shift in the new year. Beginning in January, School Council will be
putting their efforts into planning and facilitating a handful of
community engagement events for our Bronco families.
Some of the areas of focus include: supporting your child with self
regulation, as well as literacy and numeracy games to support fluency.
<em>More information will be shared in January</em>. </span></p><p class="x_MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-CA" style="font-family:"montserrat light";"> </span></p><p class="x_MsoNormal"><strong><span lang="EN-CA" style="font-family:"montserrat light";color:red;">Full Year Fundraisers</span></strong></p><p class="x_MsoNormal"><strong><span lang="EN-CA" style="font-size:11pt;font-family:"montserrat light";color:windowtext;">Pizza</span></strong><span lang="EN-CA" style="font-size:11pt;font-family:"montserrat light";color:windowtext;"> - Pizzaville (every Friday)</span></p><p class="x_MsoNormal"><strong><span lang="EN-CA" style="font-size:11pt;font-family:"montserrat light";color:windowtext;">Milk
