What We Do

Fundraising Programs

  • School Carnival Fundraiser - The Event of the Year! 

    One of the biggest fundraisers of the year, our carnival typically raises 40% - 50% of our spending money for the following school year. And every dollar raised supports school programs and initiatives—we invite everyone to come out, have fun, and make a difference!

  • Pizza lunch is a School Council fundraiser. Pizza lunch is offered every third Friday during the school year (Thursday where Friday is a PA day or holiday).  All work is done by volunteers and all proceeds go to benefit our Bowmore students. Funds raised are used to pay for items such as science enrichment in the classroom, author visits, sports uniforms, school clubs, music and theatre performances, and more.  Pizza lunch also helps to support the Bowmore Cares fund, ensuring that all students are able to participate. 

    If you need financial support in ensuring your kids have access to pizza lunch, please reach out to the principal

    For information on how to order and pizza pricing, check out the Pizza Lunch Fundraiser FAQ

    To volunteer please email bowmoresc@gmail.com. The time commitment is approximately 45 minutes from 11:15 am to noon on pizza lunch day. 

  • The Grade 8 Graduation Committee is dedicated to planning a memorable and inclusive send-off for our graduating students as they transition from elementary school to high school. Its goal is to ensure every student can participate in the celebration and feel proud of their accomplishments.

    The committee actively organizes a variety of initiatives to support the graduation festivities, including:

    • Fundraising Events: Candy grams, bake sales, Purdy’s Easter Chocolate fundraiser, chip and freezie sales, and Subway lunch fundraisers for intermediate students.

    • Grad Hoodie Sales: Many years the initiative includes grad hoodies (usually with the designs voted on by students) and hoodies distributed in early June

    • The Clap Out: The whole school gathers to cheer on our Grade 8s as they make their symbolic exit from Bowmore.

    • Grad Gifts: Thoughtful keepsakes will be presented to each student following the Clap Out.

    • Graduation Reception: Planned by the school in consultation with grad committee, we hold an event that brings together students, staff, and caregivers to celebrate achievements and say goodbye.

    Get Involved

    We’d love your help! There are still many ways to support the celebration—whether it’s delivering chips and freezies to classrooms, wrapping grad gifts, decorating the gym on graduation morning, or attending the Clap Out.
