Walk-a-thon!

On Friday, April 28th, 2023, our school will be holding a Walk-A-Thon to raise funds for Outdoor Learning Spaces (trees, seating areas, planters). This event is held every two years and it is our hope that each student make an effort to gather as many sponsors as possible to make our event a success!

Kindergarten, Grade 1 & 2 students will walk 5 km, and Grade 3-7 students will be walking 10 km. Each class will walk together with their teacher and an extra staff member to ensure a safe walk. Our expectation is that every child participates in this school-wide event, whether or not they have any sponsors. If for any reason, you do not want your child to participate in the walk, please let your child’s teacher know by Wednesday, April 26th.

Our school goal is to raise $10,000.00. Parents, guardians and other sponsors are encouraged to make a pre-paid flat rate sponsorship amount. Donations can now be made online, even if you are not a parent/guardian of a student here at Cascade Heights. Just visit the school website, click on “Donate to Cascade Heights” and then on “Fund Destination” and select our school! Cheques and cash will also be accepted.

The School District will provide tax receipts for sponsorship amounts of $20.00 or more. Online donations will receive an immediate tax receipt. For cheque and cash donations, we will need to have your full name and address CLEARLY printed on the sponsorship form for tax receipts to be issued.

PRIZES:
• 3 top sellers will enjoy exclusive Gift Cards of choice and Lunch with the principal!
• Top Raising Primary and Intermediate classes will enjoy Ice Cream Party and Movie!
• All students who raise a minimum of $20 will be entered to win 1 of several gift cards to Chapters, McDonalds, Starbucks, Tim Hortons, Toys R Us, Gaming Cards, and more!
