On March 1 each year people across the world celebrate #ZeroDiscriminationDay to promote inclusion, compassion, and change for the betterment of everyone. This year’s theme is “We Stand Together.” We invite everyone to stand with us against discrimination.

Our 50/50 has brought in $5080 so far. That’s a prize of *at least* $2540 & you know it’s only going to keep growing! Thanks to our school community for all their hard work selling tickets. It’s an exciting time to see the Pot ‘O Gold grow!!!
