*We will be doing a Parcel Pass on the last day of school (December 22^nd). If a student wants to participate, they need to bring a WRAPPED gender neutral gift for around $10.

How it works:
Each person in the class, upon being called up to select a "Secret Santa" gift, is given a choice between either selecting an unopened gift from a pile of gifts, or of taking a gift that has already been opened away from another participant. If the person makes the later choice, then the person who had their gift taken away from them becomes next in line to make the same choice (unopened gift from pile vs. previously opened gift from another participant), with the exception that they cannot take back the very same gift that was just taken from them.

Important dates:

-Dec. 19th (DAY 2) 10:30-11:35: Grade 6 curling
-Dec. 22nd: early dismissal
