Order holiday chocolates and your child could win a fabulous family movie package!

This holiday season  Lynn Fripps Elementary School will be fundraising with Purdy’s Chocolates. This program gives 25% of the profit back to the school! It is an easy way to complete your Christmas shopping and it’s a great hostess gift for parties!

25% profit for our school!

Online ordering is our preferred method, as it eliminates the chance of having children misplace orders in their backpack, or coming in late. It also ensures something isn’t accidentally missed during the entering process by our volunteers.

Online ordering instructions:

1. Go to www.purdysgpp.com

2. Click “Register” to register your account.

3. In the field labeled “Additional info” please enter child’s name & teacher in box. Otherwise the order will not be counted towards the prize. No exceptions.

4. Our “Customer Number”: 25951

5. Order must be paid at time of order for your order to be processed.

Our account Coordinator is Crystal McCamley – [email protected]

Important Dates:
• Order Deadline is November 28th
• Pick up orders on December 10th at the school

The student with the highest order totals will win a family night out package!

Family night out package includes admission for 2 adults and 2 kids to a Cineplex theater

and a White Spot gift card for dinner.

Written by lynnfripps

Help us Achieve our Goal of $2000!

 

fundingthumbAbout the Classroom Enrichment Drive:
We are hopeful that our 2014 school year is just around the corner and would love to kick off the year with this important event. Last year, thanks to your generosity, the PAC was able to provide teachers with additional tools to enhance the educational experience for our children. The Classroom Enrichment Drive is one of the largest fundraisers for the PAC each year. 100% of the funds are provided to teachers to enhance the classroom and school environment!

 

Your 2013 dollars at work:

$1,800 for Grade 2 Classroom Readers

$2,000 for Classroom materials (divided equally by class)

$3,000 for field trip supplements (divided equally by class)

This year, we hope to continue the Lynn Fripps tradition of generosity and support. Your donation of $25 per child (maximum of $50 per family) will help us achieve our goals this school year. Please help us reach our goal of raising $2,000 through the Classroom Enrichment Drive! To make a donation, please look for the newsletter form that will arrive in print and via email when school is in session.
