THSS’s Giving Tree
At the front of the school by the top of the stairs there is a tree decorated with tags. Each tag lists an item. Take a tag and bring back the item. Each item is a donation to the Maple Ridge Christmas Hamper Society. Help a family in need have a wonderful Christmas. Place all donations in the boxes under the tree. Write your name and TA on the back of the tag and get a free webkin as a thank you for your donation.
