Go Fund Me Page- Huck/Eves Family
On January 3, one of our Lion families experienced a devastating house fire. Everyone is safe, but the loss of their home and belongings is significant.
In moments like this, our community’s kindness makes a real difference. For families who wish to help, a GoFundMe page has been set-up to support the family. You can make a voluntary contribution here: https://www.gofundme.com/f/please-help-shelby-travis-recover-from-tragic-house-fire. Every donation helps.
Your ongoing support is what makes our school community so strong.
LPS Talize Fundraiser
We are excited to announce a new fundraiser happening from now until the end of May 2026! We have partnered with Talize Kingston to raise money for student activities. For those who are not familiar with Talize, they are a Canadian-owned and operated for-profit thrift retailer with an outlet in Kingston's West End (near Reid's Dairy).
How do we make money? Talize weighs donations that are made in support of LPS and will give us 20 cents per pound of clothing and housewares, and 10 cents per pound of media (books, CDs etc.). Donations must be given to an attendant at the donation centre during open hours (around the right side of the building) and you must mention that it is in support of Loughborough Public School's fundraiser.
See the flyers below for more information, including what items are accepted and what are not.
Lost and Found- Team ROAR
