Hello Earl Grey Families and Happy New Year! 

Science Fair 

Please see the information on our upcoming Science Fair to be held on April 7 (Grades 1 to 3) and April 8 (Grades 4 to 6) here at Earl Grey School. We will have available hard copies of the registration form that can be picked up at the office. All other information will be sent via email only.

We will have a student meeting on Tuesday, January 21 at lunch where students will receive information about the planning package and expectations. All registration forms need to be returned by Monday, January 27. 

For this event to be successful, we will need approximately 25 volunteer judges to support our Science Fair. No experience necessary! A sign up Genius will be coming out next week.

Message from School Council

We are looking for help running the School Council and need the following board positions filled for next year. Time commitment is 1-3 hours a month plus attending meetings - FOR REAL!:) - we are not wasting time.  Attend our next meeting and/or contact earlgreyparentcouncil@gmail.com to learn more and ask questions

  • Treasurer: Are you an accountant?  Do your eyes light up and the mere mention of budget and bank reconciliations?  
  • Volunteer Coordinator:  Want to get to know other parents?  Help create sign up genius (only takes a couple minutes) and show your kids you're there to help out?
  • Fundraising Coordinator:  Can you help coordinate our current fundraisers (fun lunch, Purdys) or have great ideas we could be doing?   Help us keep the "lights on" and the money flowing:)
