Elf Auction

Dear Parents,

On Friday, December 16, the Secondary 5 class at Shawinigan High School will be holding an Elf
Auction. The services of the Sec 5 students will be auctioned off to other grades. The student elves will
spend the day with the classes that had the winning bids and will be helping them out and spreading good
cheer on Monday, Dec. 19th. All grades are invited to participate. If you would like your son/daughter to
take part in this event, he/she must bring in a few cents or dollars for Friday, Dec. 16th. Many classes will
be pooling their money together to bid for and share an elf. Proceeds of this auction will go towards the
2023 Graduation Fund. The presence of our elves is highly appreciated by all grades every year, as is your
support.

Il y aura un encan de lutins vendredi le 16 décembre au profit du bal de finissants 2023. Toutes les classes
seront invitées à se procurer les services d’un lutin (un élève de secondaire 5). Les lutins passeront la
journée du 19 décembre dans les classes à aider les élèves et à répandre la bonne humeur ! Si vous voulez
aider les efforts de la classe de votre/vos enfants à remporter les services d’un lutin, veuillez SVP envoyer
quelques sous ou dollars au professeur de votre enfant au plus tard le 16 décembre au matin. La présence de
lutins dans les classes est grandement appréciée chaque année, tout comme votre appui.

Merci, Thank you for your support,

Mr. Alfani and Sec 5
