Happy Family Day. We hope that everyone was able to take advantage of the long weekend and enjoy some time with one another. A big thank you to our School Council, who kicked off the weekend with a Family Movie Night. These evenings are always well attended and a great way to bring our community together.
Healthy Snack Program – We are thrilled to announce the launch of our brand-new Snack Program this Wednesday! Thanks to the generous support from Tastebuds and contributions from our wonderful families, we are excited to provide nutritious snacks for our students. What will this program look like? At least twice a week (Monday & Wednesday) students will be offered a healthy snack during the second nutrition break. Each snack will include two essential food groups. Fresh fruits or vegetables and a second wholesome option such as grain items, cheese sticks, yogurt tubes etc.
Supporting Student Programs – We will be wrapping up our February fundraising next week. If you are still interested in supporting two new programs at Winona (Healthy Snack Program and Imaginarium), we ask you to visit the following link (Donate | Foundation (hwdsb.on.ca)) to donate to The Hamilton Foundation for Students Success, the non-profit outreach of HWDSB. Please indicate Winona School (Healthy Snack Program and/or Imaginarium) in the Additional Comments box and 100% of the funds donated will go to the school. Thank you in advance and we look forward to bringing these resources to Winona students.
