Hello Everyone,
A new liturgical year has begun. A D V E N T

In Math, our class has been exploring the differences between prisms and pyramids. Faces, edges and vertices are words that have been added to our math vocabulary.

Here in Art, the students learned about the "resist" technique. Its amazing how creative the students were with a roll of painter's tape, water colours and some salt.

St Rita is holding its 4th Annual White Elephant Sale on Friday December 9th. All proceeds will be going to CHEO and Children at Risk. We ask that you please bring in items to donate beginning on December 7th and 8th.

Examples of items that you may donate are: toys, books, household items (frames, mugs, tea towel, costume jewelry etc), holiday decor. Please NO clothing. Grade 6 students have visited the classes with examples of what can be sold so please also speak with your children. All items will be sold for between 25¢ - $3.00, most under $1.00. We will also have items up for raffle. Raffle tickets will be 25¢ each.

This is an excellent opportunity for students to buy gifts for family and friends! Thank you for your generosity.

                                           

           

St. Rita School is proud to announce its continued involvement in the Angel Tree initiative.  The angels on the tree support students from our school as well as students from St. Michael’s School. If your family is interested in participating in this worthy cause, please instruct your child to take an angel off the tree. The angels are organized by gender and age for those who already have a special gift in mind. We ask that the gifts be returned back to the school by Wednesday December 14th. Please wrap the gift and return the angel with the gift. Thank you for your support during this blessed Christmas season.  

 Our class is responsible for the collection of non-refrigerated milk such as soy milk and almond milk. If you can donate, please remember it is due to the school by Wednesday December 14th so the hampers can be assembled and distributed to those who families who are currently in need.
