Register now for winter lunch programs.

Frankland is offering a variety of winter lunch activities & it’s not too late to register your child into one of them.

The Kids Card Lunch Club will be offered again for Grade 5 and 6 students on Wednesdays starting February 3rd. Kids will learn how to carve art into rubber blocks with small gouges. These blocks can then be used to print on paper, fabric and more. This club is free and will run 6-7 weeks.

Instruction will be offered by artist Amy Bond and volunteers in the school foyer from 11:30-12:35. Please note: the tools are sharp. Every effort will be made to focus on safety. Enrolment will be limited in order to allow for adequate supervision.

Please complete the permission form to sign up for the Kids Card Lunch Club.
We would love to have your help, please contact amybondglass@gmail.com if you would like to volunteer with the club on Wednesdays from 11:25am-12:45pm weekly or bi-weekly.

These gifts will be delivered to local women’s shelters and community agencies serving women impacted by homelessness across the city.

Mr. Bieler & Ms. Dwyer’s Bake Sale for the Riverdale Basket Brigade

During school on Wednesday, December 14, students are asked to bring $1 or $2 coins to buy a treat at the bake sale, which is being run by students in Mr. Bieler & Ms. Dwyer’s classes. All money raised from the sale will be donated to the Riverdale Basket Brigade. 

The Riverdale Basket Brigade is a neighbourhood charity raising money to provide local families with holiday meal packages & grocery gift cards. This year the charity is hoping to feed 250 families in need. We are hoping to help the Riverdale Basket Brigade reach this goal. More information about the Riverdale Basket Brigade Holiday Campaign can be found here. If families would like to make a separate donation to the Riverdale Basket Brigade, you can do so by clicking the link or by sending a small donation of $5 or $10 to school with your child for the bake sale. A separate collection tin will be available at  the bake sale.
