Calling All Willingdon Makers & Kid-preneurs
Our 2nd Annual Willingdon Holiday Market is happening on Saturday, November 29th, from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM in the gym (setup starts at 9:00 AM — coffee in hand, of course ☕).
We’re on the lookout for local artisans, crafty parents, and our very own “kid-preneurs” ready to bring some holiday sparkle to the tables! Handmade art, jewelry, baking, décor, or whatever creative magic you make — we want to see it!
Last year’s student vendors absolutely stole the show, and we can’t wait to cheer on this year’s next generation of makers. Parents, guardians, and extended family are also welcome to apply — Willingdon families get priority (and the best table pricing!)
So dust off those glue guns, mix up that cookie dough, and join us for this festive, family-powered community tradition!

Home and School is excited to announce our second Community Book Fair, where students will once again have the chance to shop for gently used books at amazing prices—just a buck or two! The event will take place at the school, and all proceeds will go directly to Willingdon Home and School.
There will be separate book fairs at each campus on May 15th. The Junior book fair will run 9am – 3pm, the Senior book fair will be 1:30 – 3:30pm.
Books and puzzles will be priced between $1 – $5.
To make this event a success, we need your help! Please consider donating gently-used books, as well as complete puzzles or games. Your donations will give our kids an opportunity to find new reading treasures while supporting our school. This new format also aligns with our commitment to Green initiatives, by encouraging reuse and reducing waste.
What we need:
Gently-used books, puzzles, and games (complete sets only please!)
Where to drop them off:
Donations can be dropped of at the Royal side entrance of Junior Campus, just outside the office.
