Dear Parents, Education Week, May 2017
“Sent to be the Good News”
Show Mercy
As part of our Education Week activities and Religion program, the junior students will be asked to help make sandwiches for the Shepherds of Good Hope Sandwich Program.
“The Soup Kitchen operates 365 days of the year producing an astounding 350-400 hot and nutritious noon meals, together with 90 hot breakfasts, and 200 evening meals served in shelters every evening. Additionally, 860 sandwiches are distributed as ‘take-aways’ per day.”
In order to support this initiative, on Thursday, May 4, 2017, each student will be asked to bring to school 1 loaf of bread and enough cold meat and sliced cheese to make sandwiches with their loaf of bread ( ie. 20 slices of bread will make 10 sandwiches, 10 slices of meat, 10 slices of cheese). Shepherds of Good Hope recommends that each student bring in ham or bologna, and Kraft processed cheese slices. The teachers will bring in the mustard and margarine.

approximately 10 sandwiches made per student
An employee from The Shepherds of Good Hope will be visiting the students to give a presentation on the services the Shepherds provide. The sandwiches will be taken downtown to be distributed to their clients throughout the day, on Thursday.
Your support in this initiative is much appreciated. Parents are welcome to come and help the students make sandwiches, after the school breakfast on Thursday. Thank you!
Grade 4, 5, 6 Team
