Helping others and having fun while doing it captures the spirit at Howard Robertson PS. A very sunny day was the perfect setting for students to run and walk around the school yard to raise money for cancer research in honour of Terry Fox. For two weeks our school community challenged ourselves to fill Terry’s shoes with these incentives:
Principal Mrs. Lotimer would kiss a pig on the lips!
Vice-Principal Mrs. Baer would dye her hair green!
Mr. V would get a pie in the face!
In addition to these challenges, we also had class challenges:
Room 22 would have a crazy hair day!
Room 23 would have a pyjama day!
Room 3 would agree to eat baby food!
Room 6 would have a technology party!
Our students took up the challenge of raising $600 and surpassed that, raising $724.82 for cancer research. Congratulations Howie Hawks!!!
