Any donations of gently used items (still in great condition), new items (still in packaging), wrapping paper, gift bags, tissue paper or tape can be brought to the school next week between Monday, December 9th and the morning of Thursday, December 12th. Students will be able to shop from the ‘store’ and purchase gifts for $1.00 and $2.00 on Friday, December 13th.

After students have purchased and wrapped their gifts, they will come home with students the same day. For those who ride the bus, we are able to store their gifts until parent pick up at noon-dismissal on Friday, December 20th.

Christmas Concert Bake Sale

Dear PCS Families,

Last year we had such a great response to our Christmas Concert Bake Sale that we would like to do it again at this year’s concert on December 18 @ 6pm.

Thanks to all our great bakers, we were sold out in under 30 minutes and were able to raise $512.00.

In order to make this event a success, we are once again reaching out to all parents and caregivers who are able to contribute to this wonderful cause.

If you enjoy baking, we kindly ask you to consider donating a dozen or two of your favorite holiday treats. Baked goods/treats can be dropped off at PCS on the 17th or 18th in a festive Christmas or holiday themed container. (If you cannot find a container at our local dollar store, the PAC will have some extras and can organize them into tins for sale on the evening of the Christmas concert.)

Your support and generosity will be greatly appreciated and it will certainly contribute to the success of this event.

To sign up, please respond via phone call or text to Jen Parrish at 250-401-1818 or Jessica Neuman at 250-401-1593 OR email us at pac @peacechristianschool.ca.

Thank you all for your wonderful support and we look forward to sharing this special evening with you!

Sincerely,
PCS Parent Committee

Holiday Shop

Dear Families,

We are so excited to once again be hosting a Holiday Shop for our elementary students. This Holiday Shop gives children an opportunity to purchase gifts for the special people in their lives and put something under the tree all by themselves. We will set up a ‘store’ for the students to shop from; each gift costing $1.00-$2.00. We will then help students wrap the gift and put a tag on it. This is such a merry experience for our students!

We are asking students to bring items to school that they would like to donate to the Holiday Shop. You may also want to ask family and friends for contributions. We are looking for gently used items (still in great condition) or new items (that are still in packaging). Please keep in mind that students may choose to shop for parents, grandparents or siblings, so a wide range of items is greatly appreciated. Donations of wrapping paper, gift bags, tissue paper and tape are also needed.

We are asking for all donations to be brought to the school between Monday, December 9th and the morning of Thursday, December 12th to allow time for us to arrange the store. Students will be purchasing their gifts from the Holiday Shop on Friday, December 13th. Wrapped gifts will come home with children after shopping the same day. For those riding the bus, we can store their gifts until parent pick up at noon dismissal on Friday, December 20th.

Any leftover items will be donated to the Thrift Store.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact the school and ask for Mrs. Siller.

Thank you so much!

Happy Holidays!
