Christmas Hampers

A great big thank you to all the parents who sent in food, gifts and money for the Christmas Hamper. The students were very happy to be able to provide a family in need with a wonderful holiday. Thank you to all the parents who helped pack the hampers and get them loaded in the cars: Mr. Kantzioris, Mr. Erickson & Mr. Iwanusiw. A special thanks to Mr. Moder, Mrs. Moder, & Kennedy who helped deliver the hampers. We received a very heartfelt thank you from the family and they were overwhelmed by our donation. École Assiniboine was able to help five families through the Adopt a Family program.
