We are still low on Direct Funding. Direct funding is still available via Cash online. Having direct donations means less fundraisers for all of us during the year.
If every parent donates $50 per child, we can meet our budget and can help fund school upgrades, additional supplies for your children and more. Any amount is appreciated. Please read our previous newsletter to find out where the PAC gets our money from and how it is spent. Make sure you attend our meetings to vote on important PAC initiatives.
Be sure to choose the fund destination as Sherwood Park - PAC:
Thanks to all PAC members for all the support we get for our school. Here are our kids making good use of the new laptops that were purchased over the summer by the PAC.
Family Photo Night
29th & 30th October | School Atrium
We invite you to join us for a family photo night! Come and have your family portraits taken for a $25 sitting fee (all proceeds go to PAC fundraising). If you have already donated via direct funding we will waive the fee! Email us at sherwoodparkpac@gmail.com for more details
