Food Can Drive at Mayland Heights School
We are thrilled to announce Mayland Heights School is once again participating in the "Can Drive" initiative, dedicated to supporting our local Calgary Food Bank and Veterans Food Bank of Calgary. We are collecting non-perishable food items to assist those in need within our community. Your involvement is greatly appreciated. We invite you if you are able to donate items such as canned vegetables, fruits, pasta, rice, and other shelf-stable foods. The attached letter indicates a list of food items that can be donated. To motivate participation, the class that collects the most donations will receive a special treat from the Parent Council. This initiative offers a fantastic opportunity for our students to learn about the significance of giving back and helping others. Please send your donations to school from November 25th to December 18th, 2024. Together, we can make a meaningful impact in the lives of families who depend on the food banks.
Cold Weather Policy
We recognize the value of outdoor breaks such as recess and lunch during the school day, however, when the temperatures reach -20 Celsius or colder including the wind-chill factor, students will not be going outside.
Please dress your children with all their winter clothing for recess and lunch. Students will be going outside in the winter. We recommend that students wear a few layers in order to stay warm.
