A bucket of pennies!                                                 Gr. 3-4 Winners                            Weighing every last penny!

 Students at Bengough School have depleted the penny supply at the local Credit Union!  They had a penny challenge for one week to see which classroom could bring in the most pennies.  The results:

Kindergarten     11.6 pounds          Grade 1-2            5.6 pounds

Grade 3-4            23.6 pounds          Grade 5-6            6.4 pounds

Grade 7-8            28.8 pounds          Grade 9-11          18.4 pounds

Grade 10              49.8 pounds          Grade 12              8.2 pounds

 The winning elementary classroom was the Grade 3-4 class and the winning high school classroom was the Grade 10 class.  Each room won a basket of goodies to share.

 In total the students brought in 152.4 pounds of pennies which equals approximately $275.00.

 However, they are not done yet!!  They still need to bring in pennies for the Penny Carnival on February 10.  To play the games, they need to donate pennies – so keep collecting!

 All the money raised is going to the Bengough Elks SPARC fund.  Pennies do count!
