Holiday Market!
Our awesome Sydenham P.S. School Advisory Council would like to invite you to the Sydenham Holiday Market!
Sat, Dec 3/22 (1pm - 4pm or once we sellout) in the SPS school yard!
Baking, Crafts, hot beverages, and horse drawn wagon rides*
Cash, cheque, or etransfer accepted (no debit or credit)
There are a limited number of the Kingston Pewter ornament/collectables of our beloved school-house available for sale this year as well. Don’t miss out on this limited edition keepsake. Once these are gone, we cannot get any more.
Volunteer bakers/crafters still welcomed/needed! Send an email to marnie.girard@icloud.com
*wagon rides run from 1-3 only and a cash donation to ride is appreciated
Wreaths and planters:
Did you order wreaths or planters?
Pick-up is at the school Dec 3/22 between 1pm and 4pm.
Tip: Bring work gloves and a covering for your car as the planters/wreaths can be a bit dirty and the natural greenery used will most likely drop pine gum and needles in your car.
Bonus: your car will smell like a forest!
Giving Tuesday (Nov 29/22):
Can’t make the market but want to support the councils’ fundraising efforts? We are always happy to accept cash/cheque donations in any amount. Your gift directly supports student learning and enrichment at Sydenham. Ready to make a gift? Contact us by emailing us at sydenhamps.advisory@gmail.com
Our current fundraising efforts are to provide upgrades in the auditorium for performances and ceremonies. We also regularly support classroom enrichment opportunities brought forward to the council by our fabulous teachers!
