Thetis Elementary Christmas Art Cards

Once again, the Thetis Island Elementary School students have put together a beautiful collection of Christmas cards!  For this project the students have been studying perspective, as they dream about picking up their Christmas tree and some packages to go under it.  With no bazaar this year, we are offering these cards through an online site here  https://kristinakasting4.wixsite.com/tiesfundraising 

The cards are 5x7 with envelope and cost $3 each, 4 for $10, or a complete class set for $45.  100% of the proceeds support our community school. 

If you have any questions, please email tipaorders@gmail.com

Capernwray Virtual Christmas Carolling & Message

To our Dear Thetis Island Neighbours

Though we couldn’t go ahead with our annual tradition this year where staff and students alike visit Thetis Island homes to bring yuletide cheer through song, we decided instead to bring our sincere and best wishes for a very Merry Christmas to you virtually instead.  

Join with us in singing some well-loved Christmas carols from the comfort of your own home followed by a message on the true meaning of Christmas on YouTube:

Capernwray Virtual Christmas Carolling https://youtu.be/GhnlzTAUv0w 

The Students and Staff of Capernwray wish you, your family & friends, a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

We've got some chores to do in Duncan next Tue Dec 8th including a trip to Bing's.

The truck and trailer will be mostly empty so I'd be happy to take your recycling too. (Not doing garbage). 

Your stuff will need to be clean and sorted into the different categories handled by Bing's:

- paper and cardboard can be together

- glass

- stretchy plastic

- crinkly plastic

- tin cans, milk bottles, plastic bottles etc. Can be together

Please put each lot into a plastic bag or cardboard box, which will also get recycled.

You can bring it to our place on Monday, or to the 8:05am ferry line-up on Tuesday morning. (Will be in line around 7:30).
