Calling ALL chocolate-lovers!

We’re teaming up with Purdys Chocolatier to fundraise for the St. Mary’s Athletic Club with all proceeds going to meet our goal of lowering the athletics cost of all athletes at St. Mary's by 25%. We are setting a fundraising goal of raising $5000!

Stock up on your favourite Purdys treats (did someone say Hedgehogs?) AND support a great cause at the same time—it’s the best of both worlds. All fundraising profit raised will directly support the athletes of St. Mary’s Catholic School, so every order makes a great difference to us.

Ordering is as easy as eating chocolate. Just go to this link https://fundraising.purdys.com/1593084-99648

Fill out your info you’ll need an email address, click “Join Campaign”, enter campaign number - 65201, and order to your heart’s content!

The order deadline is Nov. 29th, so get chocolating and spread the word!

Hey St. Mary's Family! It's the time of year again to be thinking about decorating your house with poinsettias for the holiday season! The Sr. Boys Basketball team is hoping to fundraise approximately $800 to help cover costs. We are selling red poinsettias, planter boxes, holiday wreaths, hanging greenery, and outdoor arrangements.

Plants will be delivered to the school on the evening of December 13 and can be picked up that night or during the day on December 14. Order deadline is on Monday, November 28.
