BCS 3/4 CLASSROOM WINTER PARTY PROJECT
We are very excited to announce that all 3/4 classrooms will be taking part in a project benefiting the Pediatric Department at Beaumont Hospital in Royal Oak. We are hoping that this will help reinforce the spirit of giving for our children this holiday season.
There are three parts to the project (to take place at the Winter Party on Friday, December 21, from 2-3pm):
The students are invited to bring in one of the following UNWRAPPED gifts to their Winter Party. These OPTIONAL gifts will be collected and donated to the hospital. Prizes and gifts are an ongoing need in the Pediatric Department. They are used for prizes for pokes and medical procedures, birthdays and end of chemotherapy. (Note – this list is the department’s recommendations and what they need most). . .
Target, Best Buy or I Tunes Gift Cards
Figures – Spongebob, Dora, Spiderman, Batman, Power Rangers and other Action Figures
Barbies
Bionicles, small Lego and Knex kits
Mini Play-dough
Controllers or Games for Xbox 360 (new or used welcome)
DVDs (new titles; new or used welcome)
Fisher Price Family Figures
Fiskars Kid’s Scissors
Markers
Decks of Playing Cards
The students in each class will have a chance to write a Holiday Card to a pediatric patient. The student can decorate or write as he/she wishes (nondenominational templates will be made available to the students at the party).
The classroom will make a Gingerbread Chain that will be hung in the Pediatric Department. These 8 chains will help brighten the hallways for the children.
