Thank You for Helping Make Runnymede Fun Fair a huge Success!
Fun Fair Highlights:
Thanks to all the Runnymede families who came out to support this wonderful community building and fundraising event for Runnymede!
To all the amazing Fun Fair Volunteers:
Thank you for your time, energy, and enthusiasm to help make this year’s Fun Fair such a success!
With a school community of 1,000 students, events like this simply couldn’t happen without volunteers. Whether you helped with setup, activities, food service, ticket sales, clean-up, or stepped in wherever needed, your contribution helped create a fun and memorable day for our students and families.
We know everyone is balancing busy schedules, work, family commitments and countless other demands, which makes your willingness to volunteer even more meaningful. The smiles, laughter, and excitement throughout the day were made possible because of your support.
Thank you for bringing our school community together.
It was truly a wonderful community building event!
Special thanks to Jenna & Megan for leading the HSA/Parent Council’s Fun & Fundraising committee again this year, and for their tireless work putting on Fun Fair! (and the many other amazing events we enjoyed, from Kindergarten Welcome, Marlies Game, Pub night etc etc !).
If you enjoy event planning, and would like to get involved next year, both committee chairs are retiring from the HSA so we need help to make sure these amazing events (and fundraising that let us give so much to the school) can still happen! Please reach out!
Make sure to give special thanks if you see Mr. Pagé, Mr. Evangelou or Mr. Salvatore also! They went above and beyond volunteering to be in the dunk tank – Also thank you to the two brave Runnymede dads who volunteered to fill n the gaps!
As always, thank you to Runnymede’s amazing admin team, teachers, office staff and custodians, for always being supportive and willing to participate and help make sure Runnymede is a fun place to be! We do it all for the kids!
Runnymede Bike Rodeo Highlights:
Thank you to Runnymede teacher Ms Kelly Crosswaithe and the HSA Athletics Committee for organizing the Bike Rodeo to celebrate Bike to School Week! Kids had a great time visiting all the stations!
