Breakfast Program Volunteers needed – We are looking for a few parent volunteers to help out occasionally with our Breakfast Program by filling in on Wednesday or Thursday mornings when needed. The program runs from 8:30 AM to 8:50 AM in the Community Room, where students are served a light breakfast such as cereal with milk, yogurt, and other simple items. If you’re available to volunteer occasionally on Wednesdays or Thursdays between now and the end of the school year, we would greatly appreciate your support! If you’re interested or would like more information, please contact Taryn Briscoe at Taryn.Briscoe@burnabyschools.ca.
