Altered Bell Schedule For Friday, June 23, 2023
Enjoy White Spot and Support the Theatre Program!
We are thrilled to announce a wonderful fundraising partnership with none other than BC’s favourite, WHITE SPOT RESTAURANT, located on GILMORE.
This fundraiser is to support our school in continuing to build a budding Theatre Program.
As part of this fundraiser, WHITE SPOT at GILMORE is committed to donating $1 to Alpha for every adult entree purchased at our Gilmore location (dine-in or pick-up) from June 19th until September 04, 2023. Note that Pirate Pack Day (Aug 16) will be EXEMPT from our fundraiser.
Parents/guests/families participating in the fundraiser, simply eat at/from White Spot at Gilmore and then take a photo of their full receipt with the food orders after payment and email the photo to Cristina McAllister at cristina.mcallister@burnabyschools.ca. Share this fundraiser info with anyone you know. Anyone can email in a receipt. We are all part of the same community and can help each other.
So, enjoy that Triple O sauce when it’s too hot to cook this summer, get an entree (and a shake for good measure) and send us your receipt! Every delicious bite will help our program to grow!
ALTERED BELL SCHEDULE NEXT WEEK (APRIL 25 TO 28, 2023)
To accommodate the Grade 10 Numeracy Assessment, Flex will be cancelled and we will be running super blocks every day throughout the week. The schedule for next week will be as follows:
