We are a couple of years into a pandemic that has been difficult for everyone. The beauty that has come out of this time is how our community has stepped up and proven, more than ever, how important we are to each other. 

In normal years, our School Council would be fundraising for things like field trips and music instruments, AV equipment and technology for the classrooms.

These past couple of years have been different. Our priorities have changed to focus on resources for Outdoor Education, Food Security, Anti-Racism Workshops and our biggest push yet to Renovate our Schoolyard.

Our schoolyard currently consists of a muddy field, heaving, cracked asphalt, and some monkey bars. Considering how important we’ve all come to realize green space and recreation facilities are for being outdoors while staying close to home, our new schoolyard design will be a boon for the entire community to enjoy - including a new climber, a revitalized field to support OPAL (Outdoor Play and Learning) and a brand new basketball court! As you can imagine, this is a tremendous goal and will require the support of our greater community to achieve it.

I’m asking your business to help with a donation of an item, gift in-kind, or gift certificate to be used as an auction item to help us reach our goals to support these important educational and community-building initiatives for our school.

Thank you for your consideration of this request to help Blake St. Jr. Public School. Your support will make a difference!
