Month: November 2017

Labelling clothing, bags and lunchboxes is a great way to keep them out of the Lost and Found and make sure they make it back home at the end of the day. If you choose to buy stick on labels, we’d love for you to do it through our Fundraiser with Mabel’s Labels.

Just go to www.campaigns.mabelslabels.com and select “Roden P.S. School Council (Toronto)” from the list of schools. Your labels cost the same price as usual, and Council gets a little extra money to support health initiatives such as the Nitwits lice check program. This is an ongoing program – use it now for Holiday items and winter wear, and again in the future as you stock up on all things label!

In other School Council news, the Summer Send-Off accounts have been added up and we’re delighted to announce the event raised just over $4,000 for cultural enrichment activities in the school. Watch out for information about performances etc, during school time, for all students to enjoy!
