1. Minutes – Review of meeting minutes from October 2009. One<br />
clarification regarding McDonalds’ night. Half the money raised at<br />
McDonald’s night will be going to the Salvation Army Food Bank. The emailed<br />
motion to donate $100.00 to the G & M Hospital Foundation in<br />
thanks to Rosalie passed.<br />
2. Presentation to Salvation Army – Two hundred dollars was raised<br />
during the McDonalds’ night. Denise Spears to organize a day and time to<br />
present a cheque for one hundred dollars. School Council members,<br />
students and staff will be invited for a picture opportunity.<br />
3. Fundraising Plan for 2009/2010 – The teacher wish list was reviewed.<br />
Thank you to Mrs. Hutchinson for putting the list together. It was decided<br />
that School Council set a goal to raise $10,000 for the year 2009/2010.<br />
The money raised this year will go toward field trips and general school<br />
needs. Any profit made from the sale of magazines will go directly to the<br />
grade 7 and 8 field trips. A surplus of $2,967.10 will be left in School<br />
Equipment (“earmarked” for technology). All other debt will be paid off as<br />
per September meeting. Mr. Giffen will submit the plan to the board.<br />
Patricia Wark and Nicole Hagreen will review the plan before it is sent out.<br />
4. Grade 7 and 8 field trip - School Council would like a breakdown of the<br />
field trip cost. (ie; how much for the bus and accommodation) It was<br />
suggested that the McMillan fundraiser could still happen in the New Year<br />
but will need to be organized by the grade 7 and 8 students and their<br />
parents.<br />
5. Lice Busters – Kristin Ellis presented information on an alternative nonpesticide<br />
treatment for head lice. Kristin will be summarizing a treatment<br />
letter to distribute to students/parents. What can we do to help eliminate<br />
this reoccurring problem? Can we offer parents financial help who cannot<br />
afford the treatment? Can we pay for a company to come in and educate<br />
students and parents? Lisa Hansen will organize a group of volunteers to<br />
do a round of head checks.
