Dear Broadacres Families,

As we begin to wrap up 2024, we want to take a moment to reflect on all that we’ve accomplished together as a school community within the first few months of the school year. Your support, generosity, and enthusiasm have made it possible for the school council to enhance our children’s experience at Broadacres in so many meaningful ways.

Here’s what we’ve achieved together this year:

• Pizza Lunches: Our biggest fundraiser! These lunches not only brought smiles to our kids but also funded all the amazing initiatives below.
• Classroom Enhancements: We provided five new whiteboards to improve learning spaces.
• Teacher Support: Every teacher received $300 to enhance their classroom resources.
• Class Trips: Each class received $200 to help subsidize buses for field trips.

School Events:

• We hosted a memorable movie night where we watched Despicable Me 4.
• We funded an upcoming Indigenous storytelling event in May, an opportunity for our students to engage with stories that celebrate culture and tradition.
• School Sports & Events: We purchased a Broadacres-branded pop-up tent to support school events and sports.
• Silverbirch Program: We covered the cost for students to participate in this enriching literary program.

None of this would have been possible without your involvement—whether it was ordering pizza lunches, attending events, or simply cheering us on.

Thank you for being part of this journey. Together, we’ve made a real difference for our students, teachers, and school.

As we look ahead, we are excited about continuing this partnership in 2025.
