These presentations are sponsored by our Ross Road PAC. Mark your calendars!
Ross Road Winter Fair
Mark you calendars, the Ross Road Winter Fair is on Wednesday December 5th, from 5-8pm.
Grade 4’s & 5’s are hosting the event, but we need more help to make this special fundraiser happen.
- Class reps will be collecting donations to go towards amazing raffle baskets and mystery cards. We are asking about $10-15/student
- Clean out your closet and donate any new or lightly used items to the Shop & Wrap room. We will have cardboard boxes under the stairs in the lobby for donations.
- Parents like raffle baskets too, so please consider donating bottles of wine or beer. Drop bottles off at the office, and let them know it’s for Winter Fair.
- Plan dinner in advance. MunchaLunch will soon be open to order Subway for dinner at the Fair.
- Keep an eye out for the Volunteer Sign up for the night of the Fair. It takes a village to set up, take down and staff the event.
- Bring homemade and store-bought goodies for the Bake Sale (drop off on the day of the Fair!)
- And, if you are the parent of a Grade 4 & 5 student, we especially need your help. We still need people to plan the Bake Table, organize the Shop and Wrap room and plan crafts for the Craft Room. Contact Susan at skneale17@gmail.com to find out more.
Finally, keep an eye out for more information from you Class Reps.

Ross Road Parent Runners Meet-Up
Ever looking for a running buddy?
There are a number of runners, of all levels and abilities, among our Ross Road parent community. We would like to try having a run meet-up at school drop off time. If you would like to connect with another person to go for a run, meet in the school lobby after the kids go into school. You might find someone else looking for a running mate too.
