Canned Food Drive

by Andrew

Are you wondering what your kids are meaning when they say “Can I bring some caned food into school?” Well then, you're reading the right article. The whole school of GBS are collecting non-perishable foods for the Antrim food bank. 5th grader Jeffery said “It's basically about to help out the community.”
The goal for the canned food drive is 2,316 and there are approximately 325 kids in the school. That means that every kid in the school need to bring in approximately 7 cans each. Thats not much to give up. Mrs. Welch said, “I think it makes students think that it's good to help the community.” If we get that goal, Mr. West will give a special prize to the whole school. Mrs. Kidd, the one who started this food drive, believes that the school can get 3,000 cans which means each kid must bring in approximately 9 cans each. The canned food drive will last until the 16th of April and Mrs. Kidd thinks that we'll reach our goal on the 14th because the whole school may bring in a ton of cans in on the last week. Mr. Winchester stated that “It's nice to have assistance when your in a hole.”
Thats the update on the canned food drive. Please remember to send in cans so we can reach our goal.
