EARL GREY WEEKLY UPDATE

Only one more week to go until Spring Break! We hope the upcoming break gives families time to rest, recharge, and connect with one another maybe even somewhere a little warmer :)

This is also the final week of our Animation Residency. Students have been building so many new skills and, most importantly, having a great time bringing their ideas to life through animation. It has been wonderful to see their creativity and excitement throughout the residency.

A reminder that there is no school on Friday, as it is a non-instructional day for staff.

📅 New Order Deadline

April 10

📦 New Shipping Option (Based on Family Feedback)

To help reduce costs for families, we worked with our supplier to offer:

  • FREE shipping to the school
  • $1.50 bagging/labeling fee per order

We hope this helps remove barriers for families who would like to purchase school spirit wear.

Please note: This option applies to new orders only. Unfortunately, we cannot adjust shipping on orders that have already been placed. Thank you to the families who shared feedback—we truly appreciate it.

👕 Spirit Wear

Students, staff, and families can order Earl Grey t-shirts and hoodies and proudly show their school spirit at school, on field trips, at sporting events, or out in the community.

💛 Supporting Our School

This pop-up store is also a small fundraiser for Earl Grey.
$5 from every item purchased goes directly back to the school to support field trips, special events, and student learning opportunities.
