St. Andrews school is a Catholic school. It is an amazing school to go to!It teaches about Christ in Religion. It has cool Artwork to do and many other things! I Love my WONDERFUL school. St. Andrews is in High Prairie, Alberta, Canada. It is about a hour away from Peace River.

Abigail is Mrs. Caudron’s sponsor child. Before Mrs. Caudron had her as a sponsor child, her sister had to drop out of school and take care of Abigail.

Like I said in the slide before, Abigail's sister had to come out of school so we gave her and the other children in the Isiolo Kenya Compassion Project money. With the money Abigail is happy and has some more house objects!

What?

Page 9: Share Lent

You might ask “ Why did Mrs. Caudron start sponsoring Abagail?” Well, she did it because Abagail couldn’t go to school, didn’t have a mom, and didn’t have any food. But when Mrs. Caudron started to sponsor Abagail, she could go to school, and had food. She still doesn't have a mom, but she has a sister, a dad, and is HAPPY and is learning about Jesus.

Why?

We interviewed Mrs. Lasher because she organized the Share Lent fundraising in our school. We asked her about Share Lent and what she thinks about it. She thinks that is wonderful to help the less fortunate people in Isiolo, Kenya by donating money to the Isiolo Kenya Compassion Project, where Abigail goes on Saturdays.

Thank you Mrs. Lasher

Every year we have Pancake Day. We collected $2 for every student who ate pancakes. So we asked Mrs. Lasher if it was her idea. Her answer was: It’s a tradition at St. Andrews School. Now you know!!

Shrove Tuesday

To raise money we also did Easter Grams. They were Kinder Surprises that grades K-6 bought, each one cost $1.50. It is also a tradition too!

To raise money we had cans/jars to put money into, Give A Dime for Lent. Jr. High had a coin challenge to see what class could collect the most coins and now they have charted it.
