YE FAIR

Mrs. Pajak’s and M. Gosselin’s classes would like to extend a huge thank you to the MRE community for supporting our Young Entrepreneur Fair this year. With your help we were able to raise a total of $527.10 that will be donated to the BC Children’s Hospital. Thank you to the parents, staff and students who made this event a huge success.

 

FREEZIE SALE

Cool down after school every Friday in June with a delicious freezie — just $2 each!

All proceeds go toward the 2026 Quebec Trip, so every treat helps support our future Grade 7s!

Don’t miss out! Bring your change and chill with us!

 

LOST AND FOUND

The lost and found is very full! Please come by the school to check for your child’s missing belongings.  All remaining items will be donated on the last day of school.
