Friends of Holy Cross School is holding our annual Cinco De Mayo fundraiser Saturday May 3rd 2008
Last year we raised over 20,000 bzd thanks to many people who helped out through donating time, prizes, money, food, percentages of the bar and much more.
This year’s event will be even more spectacular. Many businesses in San Pedro are already stepping up and showing their support. Wet Willys has agreed to host the event and many have started making donations for the auction which will be done by professional auctioneer Doug Willey. Blue Lotus, Portofino, Sol Spa, Master Zac, Christos, Capt Jack, Carole Goudreau Esthetic, Casa Picasso have already made donations towards Cinco De mayo 2008.
We are looking for volunteers locally abroad to help us raise money for the school. If you are interested in helping out and would like to know more please contact me through the email listed in blog profile.

Today Denise and I went top do some art work with Mr Darwin Tun's class and had a great time with the kids - split them up into 3 groups - boys made planes and 2 tables of girls doing coloring and crafts.To help boost what we brought with us. Miss Grace and Miss Lara let is go through the supply closet for some glue, markers, colored pencils, and paper. If you would like to help the kids get creative, art supplies are a very welcome donation.
Anyone interested in participating in art, drama or any skill set they might have to offer please call the School office 226-3456 or email me at the address in my tacogirlblog profile - this can be a one time thing or on a part time basis.
We are also looking for valentine cards if anyone reading this is coming down soon.

Denise and I went up tp the school today so she could volunteer to do arts and crafts with the kids a couple of times a week - we came up with the idea to make things that they can use in drama and putting on plays.
While there we did part of the tour and met another really nice couple who was looking to see how they could do something with the school.
If you want to add a new experience to your vacation I highly recomend you make plans to drop by the school and see the kids. - they are a great bunch.
Anyone arriving before Valentines that has room to bring candy it would be greatly appreciated. I am also looking for people interested to speak at career day Monday Feb 25th. DCG is the first volunteer for that.

Santa came to Holy Cross today and delighted the kids with Christmas stockings and presents.
It was quite remarkable to pull this off for 400 kids especially when the load of donated presents did not arrive. Thankfully we had some great contributions from message boarders, lots of elves and a few smart shoppers to help make it all work out.
Thanks goes out to all who helped make this a Christmas to remember for the kids.
The students and staff of Holy Cross Anglican School wish everyone a blessed and joyful Holiday Season!!
