Book Fair Success!

A huge thank you to everyone who helped and supported the Book Fair last week! Together, we surpassed our goal of over $5,000 in sales which means we raised $1,200 in cash for our school library!! Special shout out to Sue and Lucy for all your hard work in organizing and running such a large and successful event!

We’re also thrilled to announce that through your generosity all the teacher's Wish Lists were fulfilled which means more exciting books and resources are now in our children’s classrooms!

Family Movie Night – Thursday, October 24th, 6 PM

Join us in the gym on October 24th for a night full of laughs, music, and heart with Disney’s Coco! Doors open at 5:45 PM, so come early to claim your spot, grab some treats at the concession, and get cozy.

Bring the whole family—just make sure no one steals your popcorn in the spirit of the night. It’s going to be a bone-a fide good time!

We can’t wait to see you there!

**Please note: children must be accompanied by an adult at all times during this movie night

**Concession will be cash only.

Spirit Wear Reminder

Mark your calendars so you don’t forget to place your orders for Chantrell Creek Spirit Wear! We will have sizing samples available after-school on Monday, October 21st, and Tuesday, October 22nd, to help you get the perfect fit. Ordering will be done online and the link will be sent out next week. This is a great way to show school pride, so be sure to check it out! 

Thank You, Volunteers!

A BIG shout-out to all the amazing volunteers who have signed up and helped with the Book Fair, Hot Lunch, and morning traffic. Your hard work and dedication keeps everything running smoothly, and we couldn’t do any of these things without you! If you’re interested in volunteering, check out the links below:

September Updates: Hot lunch, Volunteer Opportunities, and More

Dear Chantrell Creek Families,

We have a few important announcements and updates to share:

Hot Lunch Orders

Just a reminder that the Hot Lunch System closes tomorrow, Saturday, September 21st, for this term. Orders can only be processed if they are paid in full. Term two ordering will open in the New Year.

**Volunteer Opportunities**

We have several volunteer opportunities that need to be filled. If you are available to help, please consider signing up for any of the following roles that fit your schedule:

1. Hot Lunch Volunteers: volunteersignup.org/ECYJP

2. Traffic Volunteers:  volunteersignup.org/WECBL

Thank You to Our Terry Fox Volunteers! 

A big thank you to all the volunteers who helped out today for the Terry Fox Run. Your involvement allowed the students to run safely and made a significant impact on our school spirit. 

Technology Fund Donations

You may have seen the new Technology & Playground Upgrade section on the Hot Lunch Ordering site. This year, PAC is asking families for a one-time $100 donation to help cover technology replacements (like classroom laptops and tablets) and future playground updates. If everyone pitches in, there won’t be any more fundraising for these items this year, allowing PAC to focus on fun events and boosting school spirit. Your support and generosity means so much to the students and staff!
