$3000 for library books
$2000 to library improvements including new furniture
$1000 for Wills Jams
$1700 for Artists in the Class
$1000 Authors in the School
$500 clubs
$500 gr 12 scholarship
$1500 for outdoor improvement projects I clouding garden boxes in front of kindergarten classes
$200/division that teachers can use for supplies, books, craft supplies or to subsidize field trips!

And we continue to raise money to go towards future outdoor improvement projects.

Other things that happen because of the PAC:
Hot lunch program
Popcorn days
Halloween dance
Fun Fair

All of these things happen only with the support of all of the families at Ecole Hammond Bay who support the fundraisers and volunteer to make these events and programs a success.

We thank all of you for your involvement with the PAC and your investment in your childrens' education.

HUGE thank you to all the parents and families who helped make the fun fair a success!

To all those who helped run stations, donated cupcakes, donated raffle items, and were go-to runners (looking at the many young people involved) to move things from here to there.

*Thank you!!!!*

Events like these aren't possible without all your help, so

THANK YOU!!!!
