  1. Thank you!

Thank you so much for your support of our Winter Concerts, we really enjoyed sharing these presentations with our families and the school community. The Sandhills community is so generous!  There have been many recent fundraising initiatives.  The Global Issues raffle for Natural Disaster Relief raised $1200!  The grade three book sale for Natural Disaster Relief has been very successful and the students are excited to share that $616.40 was raised!  The collection for the Waterloo Region Food Bank has raised $326.20 in cash donations and 16 boxes of non-perishable food already and the collection will continue into next week!  Thank you Suns!  Your generous spirit will make this season brighter for families near and far.
