Maintenance Update: A reminder that our next workbee is tomorrow from 9am to 12pm. Please register through OnVolunteers. This month we will continue to clean up the leaves and other debris, as well as put up Christmas lights at the parish. We will also open up the school to a limited number of parents to help inside (with restrictions: no children allowed inside, all participants must be masked) under the direction of our custodian, Atul. As always, please bring anything you think would be useful (rakes, gardening gloves, wheelbarrows, etc).
If you are registered and unable to attend, please unregister to open up a spot for other families. If you do not unregister, it will be counted as a no-show. After 3 no-shows, your family will be required to opt out of the program and pay the non-completion fee for all your remaining hours (As per the CCS Parent Participation Policy Manual).
If you have any questions about the workbee, please email Jennifer at maintenance@cloverdalecatholicschool.ca
