Save the Date! 2nd Annual Rockridge Golf Tournament Fundraiser – Thursday, June 13, 2024 at the Gleneagles Golf Course.
A Not So Silent Night Gala – November 25, 2023
Rockridge parents and guests kicked off the holiday season at “A Not So Silent Night” Party & Fundraiser while supporting the PAC in raising funds for projects and programs that directly benefits our students. It was an evening of festive fun under the twinkling lights with dj, dancing and a silent auction.
Provincial Gaming Grant
Every year the PAC applies to the B.C. Government for a Gaming Grant. Gaming Grant funds must be used to directly support students by enhancing their extracurricular opportunities (e.g. clubs, sports, bike racks, etc.). A significant portion of the budget for Wish List items comes from Gaming Grant funds.
PAC Levy
Your annual student’s school fees include a $25.00 PAC Levy. Unlike Gaming Grant funds, these funds have no spending restrictions and your PAC are able to use these funds for both curricular and extracurricular items. The PAC Levy is an important source of revenue and we appreciate the contributions given by parents over the years.
