Our first ever fundraiser for the Breakfast program officially ended today. Over a two week period over $600.00 was donated in monetary donations in addition to well over 200 items to help support our school breakfast program. Our class pizza winners were also announced today. Mrs. Girouard and Mrs. Simmons' class both won a class pizza party for being top fundraising class during the campaign. Once again, thanks to each and everyone who made a contribution to our breakfast program!

The past few days have been a testament to the extraordinary support we have within our learning community!

The Douglastown Lions have continued their annual tradition of supporting a grade five field trip once again this year. This year's adventure took our students to the Miramichi Fish Hatchery.
