Dear St John Paul II Families,
Each year, the “Catholic community of Ontario engages in a week-long celebration of the unique identity and distinctive contributions of Catholic education during Catholic Education Week”. This year, Catholic Education Week will be celebrated from May 2 – 7. This years’ theme, Nurturing Hope builds on last year’s theme and calls for us to reflect on what nurturing hope means to each one of us. The theme also calls us to reflect on the many ways that we can nurture hope in others.
In keeping with the celebration of Catholic Education and our theme of Nurturing Hope, St John Paul II will be having a one day Food Drive where non-perishable food items for the Richmond Hill Food Bank will be collected to help those in need. This will take place on Thursday May 6th, 2021 between the hours of 9:30 am to 6 pm. There will be bins set up in front of the school doors to accept donations during that time.
Please adhere to all safety protocols when dropping off items, including mask wearing and physical distancing.
Thank you for supporting the Richmond Hill Food Bank.
S. Romano
Principal
