REMINDERS
SEPTEMBER 5, 2025 – OLS GOLF TOURNAMENT IS BACK!!
We are excited to be hosting our Second Annual OLS Golf Tournament on Friday, September 5th, at Swaneset Bay Resort & Country Club, in Pitt Meadows. This is an important fundraiser for our process of building a new school! We are hoping that families who golf, or families with businesses will join us for a fun day of community and support for our new school fund. Even if you are not a golfer, we are offering hole sponsorships and signs for only $500 per hole (tax receipts will be available). This is a great way to introduce your business to the greater OLS business community! If your business is interested in being a larger corporate sponsor, we can also accommodate your business needs. We have attached the notice for sponsors. You can also sign up online at https://ourladyofsorrows.ca/golf-tournament/, and we can send you or your company a direct invoice. The deadline for our sponsorship holes is Friday, May 30th. Thank you to the many parents and vendors who have already committed, and we hope all our business parents and partners can help support this important Capital Campaign for our New School Building Fund! If you have any questions, please contact the school.

IMPORTANT UNIFORM UPDATE!!
We have been informed by Neat’s/McCarthy Uniform that our navy school sweaters and cardigans will no longer have the double white arm bands. There will be a new sweater available for the 2026-2027 Centennial school year. Therefore, Neat’s have agreed to discount the present sweater and cardigans up to 50% until the present stock runs out! So, any purchases for new sweaters for the 2025-2026 year will have to be replaced with the new sweater stock by September 2027. Only the new sweater will be available in 2026-2027. That gives parents 2 years before replacement of the present sweaters. We will also be designing a new 100-year OLS logo for our next Century for the new sweaters as well. The vests and other uniform items will not be affected.

ONGOING BOTTLE DRIVE – RETURN-IT EXPRESS
The Grade 7 Fundraising Committee is continuously collecting bottles. It’s easy! Simply place your empties in clear bags and drop them off at any “Return-It Express” depot. The school’s account is under our main phone number 604-253-2434.
