Please join us for the first PAC meeting of the year. We will be meeting in the school library, located on the north side of the lower level.

This years format will include more guest speakers. Our first meeting will be an opportunity to meet the new principal, Carrie Froese - she will have 30 minutes to share her plans with us and do a brief Q&A.
​
As an incentive to hopefully bring more people out to meetings, every parent that comes out to a PAC meeting gets entered into a draw to win a pizza party for their child's class or X4 front row seats for the holiday concert (there will be 2 draws this term at the November meeting). There will also be a draw for 4 Whitecaps tickets (for the Sept 21st game) at the September meeting. 

​Hope to see you there!
​
Light refreshments will be served and free childminding is provided. 

A copy of the draft meeting agenda can be found here. 

If you have any questions, please contact livingstonepac@gmail.com

Thanks to everyone who has already signed up to help run Fun Lunch, Popcorn Days, the Welcome Back BBQ and Backpack Buddies programs. 

More volunteers will be needed throughout the year to make these programs a success. All of them are short time commitments during the school week. 

If you can help, please add your name to the Google Doc sign up sheet. 

Click on the tabs at the bottom for the different opportunities. 

Please remember to return your BBQ forms and money by Monday September 16th.

All food must be pre-ordered so that we know how much to buy and minimize waste.

FUN LUNCH: ​
We are so excited to bring back our successful fundraising program that makes your lunch plans a little easier and provides a fun experience for the kids. We have partnered with local vendors to provide a weekly "Fun Lunch" on Tuesdays. The meals are delivered to the school and handed out to the kids who have ordered in advance. On the menu this fall session are: pizza, sushi, pretzel hot dogs, subway sandwiches, butter chicken and smoothies (at recess)

Wednesday, September 11t​h​ is the ordering deadline for the first lunch on September 17t​h​.

Visit ​www.livingstonepac.org for menu details, prices, and Fun Lunch dates.

Ordering is online only, and must be completed 8 days in advance (only exception is first pizza lunch!!). No meals can be purchased the day of the Fun Lunch. All orders are final and no refunds are available once the payment goes through.

POPCORN SALES: 
​Popcorn sales are a time-honoured monthly tradition at Livingstone and we hope you'll consider your ONE TIME ONLY purchase of a Popcorn Pass for your child/children for a mere $15 per Pass. ​Purchase before Sept 26! The Pass saves you 50 cents per bag and the peace of mind that your child will get popcorn each month, no worries for you, we take care of the rest! We encourage purchasing the Pass so we have a clearer idea of numbers for Popcorn days too. If you choose not to purchase a Pass your child can still buy a bag on popcorn days for $2. First Popcorn Day will be on Friday Oct 4​.

Please purchase your Pass BEFORE SEPT 26 on the Munch-a-Lunch website -
you can easily add it to your order when placing your lunch orders! Unfortunately, the Pass option will only be available until Sept 26, after that only cash sales on the day of the sale will be accepted.
