There are many ways you can contribute to our school’s success, and make a difference for our school and our students. In our school, this can include providing in-kind donations, contributing cash and lending expertise and technical knowledge. Connect with our principal on what may be appropriate.

Healthy Hunger!
A quick reminder that you have until midnight tomorrow (January 15th, 2026) to place your order for our upcoming Healthy Hunger lunch which is taking place Tuesday January 20th, 2026. This month's lunch is The Saucy Bread Company (Pretzels), and every lunch ordered is a fundraising opportunity as a portion of $$$ from each order goes to our school for various initiatives. You can place your order by going to www.healthyhunger.ca
Thank You Very Much
ATTENTION BEL PARK PARENTS!
Our next Casino Fundraiser is coming up soon and we need YOU to help us fill the volunteer requirements!
DID YOU KNOW?
- The AGLC Casino is our biggest fundraiser for the school.
- Every time we band together and fill the volunteer requirements for an AGLC Casino successfully we bring in an average $80,000+ for Bel Park!
- That equals approximately $2500 in fundraising money for every shift worked.
- Anyone over 18 (with a clean criminal record) can work a shift for the school. It is the perfect way for grandparents to support, aunts/uncles/friends/neighbors, or the parents who are unable to volunteer in the school directly for whatever personal reasons to be a HUGE asset.
- Some recent things that have been paid for entirely by Casino funds include: The gaga ball pit (purchase & installation), upgrades to the rock climbing wall, furniture in the learning commons, subsidizing field trip bussing, new volleyball/badminton net system, the upcoming soccer residencies and the upcoming SoundKreations residency.
- These items and so much more are paid for entirely by the PFA Casino proceeds, not the CBE! If we do not work together for fundraisers such as this, your children will not have these experiences!
If you are only able to do one thing for Bel Park this year please make it a Casino shift. The impact is significant, the commitment is low (one day, no training, no follow up) and your children will instantly notice and reap the benefits!
Sign up for shifts at the link below. Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions or concerns! Happy to explain the process further and support more parents in getting involved with the school!

Bel Park Casino Coordinator.
