Hi Livingstone Community,

Hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend.  Here are a few updates from the school PAC.

PAC Meeting
Great to see the parents who made it to the PAC meeting last week.  For those interested, the meeting minutes can be found here. If you have any questions/comments please email us at  [email protected].  Our next PAC meeting will be Wednesday February 21st. 
 
Parents Night Out -- Coming Up!
 
Don't forget to buy tickets to Parents Night Out: Dancing Through the Decades! Enjoy dancing, drinks, a photobooth, prizes for best costumes/outfits, silent auction, and most importantly: no children! ;) Feel free to invite friends and neighbours as well (you'll just need to grab their tickets for them before the event sells out).
 
Grab your tickets at https://munchalunch.com
 
SILENT AUCTION
Check out our silent auction--now live! We know not everyone can make it to the soiree, but everyone can bid on $5,000 worth of auction items we've collected from our generous community donors:

Celebrating Diversity
 
The PAC Diversity Committee was formed this year with the purpose to showcase and educate our community on the wide variety of holidays that are celebrated by the families at Livingstone. This PAC funded parent-driven initiative is available to any parent willing to take the lead and showcase their celebrations.  If you are interested in sharing a tradition, festival, or celebration, please bring your ideas to us by emailing the PAC at [email protected] . There is a guideline/outline to follow and support will be available from the PAC and the school.
 
Fun Lunch Volunteers Needed
 
To keep our Fun Lunch program going strong, we need some assistance with distribution. This is a 15-20 minute time commitment to help with distribution to the classrooms. All lunches are divided by class by the vendors, come by and say ‘Hello’ to your child! Their faces light up when they see their parent at the school in the middle of the day!  And we also want to thank the parents who have volunteered their time so far. If you are interested in volunteering for any fun lunch or any other activities, please sign up here.
