PAC NEWS

Our hot lunches for February through May are now open for ordering online via

https://munchalunch.com/schools/cdg

We have:

• Bar Burrito - February 25th
• Booster Juice Smoothies and Little Caesars Crazy Bread - March 31st
• Boston Pizza - April 23rd
• White Spot - May 21st

Each hot lunch will close 10 days prior to the hot lunch date. You can order all 4 at once, which makes it nice and easy without the hassle of trying to remember to place your orders. It also saves the PAC money by cutting down the processing fee we get charged per transaction.

There are several menu options available for each vendor, please read them carefully!

Bar Burrito closes first on FEBRUARY 25th.

Library Update

Our school, along with other middle schools in the district, will be participating in the "Read What You Love Challenge" being run by the Literacy Matters Abbotsford. We are challenging our students to read for 15 minutes every day starting January 26th and ending February 14th, 2026. There will be a draw to win a Literacy Basket worth $50.00. Completed reading logs need to handed in to the library by February 18th; the winner will be announced shortly after.

For adults and children outside our school, participation cards can be picked up at the Clearbrook library, Abbotsford Community Library or Totally Bookish, and returned to them by the 20th of February for a chance to win a prize.

Yearbook

Just a quick reminder that the deadline to order this year’s Yearbook is coming up fast! This year’s book is bigger than ever and includes a special section featuring our Beauty and the Beast school production. Yearbooks are $35, and the deadline to order is Friday, February 13—don’t miss out on a great way to remember the year!
