Pizza Lunch is back BUT DIFFERENT!
Wednesday, November 21, 2012

The pizza lunch program is one of the most successful fundraising initiatives at Shaughnessy PS with proceeds reinvested in the school for our kids. The kids love Pizza Lunch and the best part is you don’t have to make a lunch that day. Just send along a drink or refillable water container.

We have changed the lunch to ONLY include pizza slices:

1 slice of pizza (cheese or pepperoni) = $2 each

Additional slices = $2 each

The pizza meets the new healthier Ontario School Food and Beverage Policy standards

Remember, tomorrow is moustache spirit day!
