A cel phone, a girl's ring and a keyboard have been found in the school. Please come to the office to claim them.
Unicef Boxes & Food Drive
Help children all over the world! Please donate spare change from now until Halloween into the UNICEF boxes found in all classrooms. Every little bit can add up!
The Free the Children group is also helping to take on this issue of hunger in our communities by holding an IN CLASS Block 2 can drive. This can drive will be a competition between all classes to see which class can donate the most cans. The prize is a pizza lunch and all the donated cans will go to the local food bank.
Bake Sale
The IGS students will be selling baked treats on THURSDAY at lunch in the lounge to raise funds for their train trip to Ottawa. Feed your sweet tooth and support a good cause.

5 on 5 Soccer Extravaganza
This THURSDAY, the IGS class will be hosting a 5 on 5 soccer tourney after school to raise funds for their trip to Ottawa. Forget the World Cup – this is the Spartan Cup.
