Art Auction

On Friday February 3^rd we celebrated our annual fundraising Art Action. We had a great turn out of parents coming to show there support for not only the charities but for there child’s masterpieces. So far we were able to raise enough money to buy three mattresses and a portion of a roof for Togo.

We would like to thank everyone for there generous donations.

If you were unable to make it, not to fret! Your child’s artwork is still available to purchase, and can be seen in the front foyer of the school. So make sure to come and take a look and support Togo and the Ratanak foundation.

Here is a little inside peek of the event. Many of the big pieces are still up for bidding.

Manotick Montessori Student Celebrates a Very Special Birthday

One of our students at Manotick Montressori celebrated her birthday a few weeks ago in a very special and unique way.

After working on the Art Show to raise funds and toys for kids in Africa, one of our students felt she needed to do more.

In March, Rebecca devoted her birthday party to the kids of Togo, Africa, requesting that all of the children bring gifts for Togo instead of for her. 

Janine Marcotte, MM's Principal, caught up with Rebecca to learn more about her special birthday.

Janine: Rebecca I heard that you had done something special for your birthday this year, what was that?

Rebecca: Yes, I decided to ask all of the children that I invited to bring presents for the Togo children instead of for me.

J: That is just wonderful, what made you think of that?

R: I don’t know I just wanted too.

J: Did the children who came to your party like this idea?

R: Yes, they all thought it was good, they were excited to get the chance to buy gifts for Togo again.

J: Would you do this again, or tell others to try it for other people in need?

R: Yes, I would.

J: Rebecca would you like to go to Africa one day?

R: Yes I would like too.

Abdou was thrilled and grateful for the birthday donations and for helping the children in Togo as a whole.

"I just what to say thank you for everything you are doing for kinds in Africa. May God bless you, and protect you."
