Hello Hastings Community,

We are excited to invite you to our annual winter celebration, the Winter Warm-Up, happening on Thursday, December 11th, from 5–7 PM!

Join us for an evening of fun, food, and festivities with family and friends. Enjoy a delicious pizza meal and hot chocolate while exploring all the exciting activities we have planned. You can look forward to student-made crafts, a choir performance and sing-along, a bake sale, fun games, a photo station, and face painting!

In addition to being a joyful community gathering, the Winter Warm-Up is also an important fundraising event for our school. The money raised helps us organize workshops, presentations, and enrichment experiences for all classes at Hastings throughout the year.

Please note: This event is cash-only.

Bake Sale Contributions

To help make the Winter Warm-Up a success, we are seeking contributions for the bake sale! Cupcakes, cookies, squares—any and all nut-free baked goods and desserts are welcome. A sign-up form will be sent home with students this week.

Student Musicians Wanted!

We are also seeking student musicians who would be interested in performing a short set of live music in the foyer during the event. A microphone will be set up and students can play one song or a few—whatever they’re comfortable with! If your child is interested, please reach out to Mme. Ciara to sign them up.

Also if you have ordered Poinsettias, they will be distributed by the undercover area during the event. 

As this is an after-school event, students attending must be accompanied by a parent, guardian, or another responsible adult. This ensures everyone can enjoy the evening safely and respectfully.

We look forward to celebrating with you on Thursday, December 11!

Warmly,
The Hastings Staff
