· QAS SPCA FAIR UPDATE – Thank you to all our SPCA Club students who worked so hard to make this year’s SPCA Fair such a success. Thanks to their dedication, we surpassed last year’s total by over $200, raising an incredible $2,810 for animals in need. We will be delivering this donation on behalf of our school later this month. A heartfelt thank you as well to all the families who came out to support the fair. It was a truly special community event, and it would not have been possible without your support.
· Hot Foods Payments – just a reminder that hot food payment is now due. You can login to your Munch-a-Lunch account and pay by credit card or send cash or cheque to the school this week.
– Call for Yearbook Art – Open to all students. Would you like to see your artwork featured in the 2025/2026 yearbook? Just draw a picture on a letter size paper depicting the CISVA theme of this year:
“Proclaiming Our Faith” Please submit your drawing with your name and grade to the school office until May 20.

We’re looking for lightly loved (clean and gently used) stuffed toys that are ready for a second chance at cuddles. If your home has a few plush friends looking for a new adventure, we’d love for you to donate them!
Your previously loved stuffies will help bring big smiles to new little owners—all while supporting our school fundraiser. Thank you for helping us give these cuddly friends a brand-new home! We will have a box by the front office for your stuffie donations.
· Bake Sale– Baking Needed: Hours Given! We will be having a bake sale table at the carnival, and we are requesting baked goods. You can get up to 2 hours (max) of participation hours for baking. One (1) hour is equivalent to: 2 dozen cookies; 1 dozen cupcakes; 1 loaf; 1 pie; 1 cake. Can you please bring your baking to the school either on Thursday, May 28th or Friday morning, May 29. If you have any questions regarding the baking, contact Daniela at [email protected]
