Staff Appreciation Cookie Day Wednesday, 23 November
It’s that time of year when we show our ISB staff just how much we really appreciate them.
The PTA is requesting 2 dozen baked cookies from each family-hopefully we have enough that each staff member will enjoy 3 cookies for morning tea! So that’s a massive 1,500 cookies needed!
Our Teachers, Instructional Assistants, Guards, Bus Drivers, Nurses, Classified Staff and many more look forward to these sweet treats we provide! It is such a lovely gesture from our ISB parents.
So please get out your favorite cookie recipes!!
Please remember: NO NUTS!!!
