Virtual Thanksgiving Mass & Fall Food Drive

Please join St. Clement CES as we celebrate Thanksgiving as a school community.  Father Michael Corcione will celebrate a virtual mass from St. Peter’s Church on Friday, October 9th at 9:30am.  Staff and students will participate in the virtual mass from school, in their classroom with their cohort.  We extend an invitation to all our families to join the live feed.  Visit  stpeterswoodbridge.com and scroll down to WATCH LIVE – CLICK TO TUNE IN.

As the number of families reliant upon local food banks increases due to the ongoing impact of COVID-19, the community of St. Clement CES will partner with the Vaughan Food Bank to assist families in need.  As always, Thanksgiving and the fall have always been a time of great need for food and toiletry donations. As a result, we will be participating in a one day Fall Food Drive which will take place on Friday, October 9th, 2020.  Bins will be placed outside near the entrance of the school from 8:00am until 3:30pm.

We invited families to place a bag of food and/or personal hygiene items in the food bank bins.

Please ensure that you maintain physical distancing to ensure your personal well being, and a reminder to wear a mask once you are on school property.

Kindly note that all bins will be held in a 5-day quarantine by the Vaughan Food Bank prior to being handled by their volunteers.

Items Requested: 

  • canned or dry food items; e.g., canned fruit, vegetables, beans, rice, cereal, etc.;
  • soap, shampoo, paper product and other toiletries;

Items Not Required:

  • baby food and pasta as these items are donated in bulk by various food producers

Thank you for your continued support and generosity!

 

Wishing all of our St. Clement families a blessed Thanksgiving.

C. Quadrini, Principal (Acting)
