Ukraine Refugee Project

 Good Day SKT School Community,

To support the Ukrainian refugee families coming to Canada, our school council will be collecting items to prepare welcome kits for the families joining our community.

We ask that each child bring in one item from the list below (if possible). These items will be collected in your children’s classrooms between May 2-20, 2022, put into 400 school donated backpacks and delivered in the weeks following to refugee support groups/families in need. Thank you for your participation.

Please note: to save space I have grouped items of like nature together but it is not necessary to get more than 1 item from these groups. Example: Hairbrush, comb, hair elastics –  just choose one of these.
