Milk Bag Collection Update

Dear parents,

Thanks for the continuous support in sending your children to school with milk bags for our collection. We have nearly 1500 milk bags collected. We are hoping to collect at least 1000 more by March Break. Ask your family and friends for outer milk bags and send them with your children to school to drop off in the box outside of the office. Remember to make sure that they’re dry and not sticky. We can’t use sticky or wet bags in mats that are made for the less fortunate. To dry just turn the bag inside-out and hang it up somewhere. We hope that our goal will be met to help support those who could really use these.
