What a great year with lots to show! We are still going strong and have some exciting events still upcoming and many more to plan for next year. If you feel you have missed your opportunity to get involved volunteering, I assure you, there are great things you can still do to help Meridian Park school. We have opportunities big and small and everything in between. If you have the desire and a little bit of time, I know I can find something for you to do that will help make a difference and you will feel great to be part of this awesome team!

Kids welcome.
