Twelve More Days...

As of today, we are just 12 short days away from the due date for all Easter Candy Orders!  As you may know there are two ways to purchase Easter Candy to support Holy Childhood.

1. Online - This is the easiest way to order! Visit the Gertrude Hawk Website and search for Holy Childhood's Fundraising page.  Our group code is: 119005. From that point, you can simply click on the name of your family or friend who is selling and make your purchase. If you are a Holy Childhood family that has not already set up a seller account see here: Instructions on how to sign up for online program.

2. Paper Catalog - With this option, you carefully fill out the order form which is found inside the catalog.  Payment is accepted in cash or check form only.  Checks should be made out to: School of the Holy Childhood.

We thank you for your support of our Annual Candy Sale!

Winter Break

The Children's Program Staff and Students are on break now and will return on Monday, February 27th.  However, the Adult Program and administrative staff are all back starting Tuesday, February 21st.

Not only can you still get your hands on a delicious Special Touch Bakery pie by calling the main line at  359-3710, you may also place an order for more candy bars by calling Kate at 359-3710 ext. 169.

Candy Rally

To help get all of our students, adults, and staff members excited about the Candy Sale, we hold rallies from time to time.  Here's a great video of Mrs. Boyle's Class keeping the crowd entertained today.

In addition to great entertainment, we found out at the rally that Mrs.Schnabel's class is in FIRST PLACE so far! Mrs. Parmiter's Class is in second, followed by Mrs. Dickinson's Class in third, and Mrs. Boyle's in fourth place!

Congrats to Shelby B. who is pictured her with winnings from the Prize Drawing!
