EFTO media release

Quiznos Lunch

We know how parents do not enjoy making lunch in the morning so why not give yourself  break and order Quiznos lunch for the last two days of school before the winter break.  The cost is $5 and Quiznos gives us a portion of the sale to support the Class of 2013.  The order form went home with students on December 6.  Please return it by December 11 if you are interested in ordering.

Holiday Gift Ideas

Have you considered the following gift ideas for this year's holiday giving?

Magazines
Although the QSP Magazine reading campaign is over you can order magazines anytime of the year at www.qsp.ca.  Enter our group code: 9513 and a portion of all sales will support the school.

Gift Cards
With the Holiday Season now here you may be considering buying gift cards.  RAPT is signed up with Fundscrip and will receive a percentage of gift card sales.

To order gift cards online go to www.fundscrip.com

Our SCHOOL GROUP # is KXPSKX 

The gift cards are shipped to your home or office for a small fee – RAPT does not distribute them directly.

Rippleton Knit Hats

The knitting club has been working on hats this year in the Rippleton colours of Blue, Green and variations in between.  They will be on sale at various times throughout the winter at a cost of $10. There are also some scarves available – they were very popular last year.

Holiday Luncheon

Thank you to everyone who attended the holiday luncheon last Thursday - especially those who volunteered for set up and clean up.  The food was amazing as usual and it was great social gathering for everyone.

Happy Holidays!
