☕💚 Thank You, W***y Volunteers! 💚☕

A huge thank you to everyone who came out to the school’s Volunteer Appreciation Breakfast last week - and an even bigger thank you to every parent, caregiver, family member, and community supporter who has contributed to the W***y community this year in whatever way they could.

Whether you volunteered at an event, organized behind the scenes, donated items, helped in classrooms, supported SAC initiatives, attended meetings, supervised trips, purchased tickets to events, or simply stepped up when help was needed - it all matters. Every contribution helps create the vibrant, caring, and connected school community W***y students benefit from every single day. 💫

A special thank you to the school for organizing such a thoughtful event, and to the teachers and staff who joined in celebrating the incredible volunteer community that supports W***y throughout the year.

The morning also included a very special thank you and sendoff for outgoing SAC Co-Chair Janet, who has dedicated so much time, energy, and heart to the W***y community over the years. Her impact on the school community has been truly remarkable, and she deserves all the recognition and appreciation. 💚

The students also went above and beyond creating beautiful artwork and heartfelt messages. Their thoughtful words, creativity, and kindness were incredibly touching and a wonderful reflection of the impact Janet - and all W***y volunteers - have had on so many students over the years. ✨
