YMCA Youth Exchange
We have a group of grade 8 students who signed up to participate in a youth exchange sponsored by the YMCA through the school to St Augustine Quebec. Students will be doing some fundraising over the next couple of months to help us afford the cost of hosting the St Augustine students when they come to Taber in April. We are all excited about our opportunity to go to Quebec during the February break.

Snack Shack
Are you tired of making lunches? Have we got a deal for you. The DAF Snack shack offers hot dog, corn dogs, taquito, and submarine sandwich meal deals (main course plus a juice box and a bag of chips) for $5.00 each day. Lunch orders are taken at first break and prepared before lunch time. We also offer bottled drinks, assorted chips, corn nuts and chocolate bars each day. Prices vary between one dollar and two dollars. The prices are set to be as low as possible and the money we make from our snack shack goes into buying the free DAF shirts we offer kids at the beginning of each school year.
