Daily Physical Activity Bag Drive - Our Last Big Push!
Dear Bowmore Community,
A BIG thank you to all the families that donated gently used sporting goods for our DPA (Daily Physical Activity) Bag Drive earlier this Spring! Thanks to your generosity (and Spring cleaning!), we were able to cut our financial need for this project by 50% and give your items a new purpose, reducing our environmental impact.
School Council is asking for your help one more time before the end of the year. We still need to fundraise $5000 in order to provide an age appropriate Daily Physical Activity Bag for EACH CLASSROOM when they return to school in September.
The TDSB mandates that students receive 20 minutes of outdoor designated physical activity (DPA) on days where they don't have scheduled gym class or swimming. This time allows for necessary brain and body breaks while promoting physical fitness. Currently, we do not have enough sports and outdoor activity equipment for each class to support teamwork, collaboration and fitness during this time.
You can donate enough to cover a skipping rope, a basketball or a bundle of sports equipment. Truly, any amount helps! Please donate TODAY via cash on line!
