Festive Auction
The Festive Auction will be live from Thursday December 5, 2024 to Sunday December 15.
Our festive auction committee is working hard to ensure we have amazing items available again this year.
We’d be thrilled to receive donations, such as tickets for sports, concerts and other events, gift cards and unique experiences, behind-the-scenes tours to interesting places, and meet-and-greets with famous people.
Let’s make this year’s Festive Auction just as successful as last years’ auction. If you or someone you know are interested in donating, please complete this online form or email festive@uccpo.ca
Calling all Bakers!
Every year the Festive Bake sale is looking for donations of nut-free home baked goods or store bought goods.
Look out for the sign up genius in the coming weeks to let us know if you can participate.
Student Performances
Student and class performances are being planned as we speak. Please check the schedule.
Snowball Grab
This is a favourite Festive tradition where students have a chance to win a prize. Tickets are $5 and winning players will receive gift cards in the $5 to $40 range. There are also grand prizes, including Apple AirPods!
We’re still collecting gift card donations to make this activity a success, and we need your help. We’re looking for gift card donations in the $5 to $40 range from Starbucks, Tim Hortons, Sport Chek, EB Games, Best Buy, Cineplex, etc. The more donated gift cards we receive, the more the students will be able to play.
Please drop off any gift cards for donation in the collection box at either the Prep or Upper school reception. Thank you!
