Think-A-Thon

Dear Parents,

The Sunalta School Council and Society is holding a Think-A-Thon to help raise funds. It is a great way for students to contribute to their school fundraising through academic efforts.

What is a Think-A-Thon?

Sunalta has hosted this event for many years, and it has been very well received by students and parents. Students collect pledges to support their effort in taking a quiz which is prepared by their teachers. This year, students in classes K-3 will take the quiz with their buddies and classes 4-6 on their own. The quiz will be in a digital format to make it a bit more fun! Each class will receive one educational game as well as a food treat after the Think-A-Thon event for their effort.

Where do the funds go?

In 2023 council raised $9000 which benefit all students and was used to supplement:

o Learning and classroom resources,

o Physical education equipment,

o Music instruments and equipment,

o School technology.

This year funds will be used to supplement:

o Art Room supplies and organizational materials,

o Learning and classroom resources,
