• We will mark $200 for the apples (approved)

 
7.  Halloween Committee (Monsterball) 

• Use to be a huge event for kids and parents. Hire a DJ, have a haunted maze, there are snacks.
• Celine said yes it is possible to have it again but we will need to make sure the capacity will be upheld.

9.  Fundraising Plans

• Monsterball – October
• Cinnibon – November?
• Bazar and trees - December

 
10.  Pizza, Subway &Popcorn Days

• Set from now till December. Pizza and Subs are going well
• Need to ask parents to follow the order rules set out since it is time consuming for the volunteers to do all the orders.
• There has not been a popcorn day so nothing to add.

 
11.  Movie Night 

• There will be food and drinks and maybe an escape room. Parents pay for babysitting service. Separate the kids into 2 age groups. There will be a set fee.
• November would be the best time to do the first movie night.
• Perhaps every 6 weeks.

 
12.  School Gear update (Cathy) 

• This is for school spirit and not a money maker.
• The gear shop will be open soon
• Shipment comes to the school and parents will volunteer and pack the items and give to the kids in school.

 
13.  Grad Dance 

• Should there be a grad dance at South Hull? Grade six students get a lot for grad and having one would start a tradition to carry forward and the teachers would not attend as they have a lot to do as is.

 
14.  Grad Hoodies

• Would like to have hoodies for the grad kids where there is the school logo and on the back with the grad year with all kids’ signatures.

 
15.  Christmas Bazar
