We need help!

Join the team! The Roden School Council needs people to help with prep, support at events, and clean up aferward; people who can help solicit donations of refreshments and door prizes; people who can write and give tech support to our new website and e-newsletter; people who can provide translation of our newsletters into Urdu, simplified Chinese, traditional Chinese and other languages spoken in the Roden community.  It is also time to start thinking about joining next year’s School Council! Get involved to support your child’s school.  Please come out to the next School Council meeting (June 12), email chair@roden.ca, or leave a message in the Council mailbox in Roden’s main office by phone 416-393.9555 or in person.
