We Scare Hunger

Our morning started out with many of the grade 6 teachers wearing capes.  Why you ask?  Because we are super heros and you can be one too!

It takes a real hero to stand up to hunger.  Everyday, millions around the world go hungry, even in our own backyard.  This Halloween, our St. Emily’s community, led by our heroic grade 6 students, will help stop hunger before it strikes.

We Scare Hunger, is “Free the Children’s” annual campaign to mobilize youth around local hunger issues. This initiative helps remind us that we can all play a part in helping the more than 900,000 Canadians who rely on their local food banks every month.

From October 28th to November 4th, we will be collecting canned food items and non-perishable food items that will be donated to the Barrhaven food cupboard.  

Sometimes changing the world needs to start at home.
Today's awesome

Superheros

Who wouldn't want to wear a cape and a mask?  Awesome!
