Birthday Boxes
One of Mrs. Watson’s Leadership students is collecting birthday items for the Strathcona County Food Bank as a part of her IPP.
Last week, the student made brief presentations to other classrooms, and this week, she is collecting items.
A Birthday Box is filled with everything a family would need to throw a birthday party for their child. Completed Birthday Boxes will be donated to the Strathcona County Food Bank. Each class will be responsible for one box. The box will be for a child their age and the students will pick a theme. The theme for 5W is “Space.”
Last week, all NHS parents were sent an email with instructions on how to sign up and donate.
