Taste of the Rainbow Smoothie Bar: A Community-Fueled Health Initiative
 
As part of ongoing health and wellness initiatives, the Taste of the Rainbow Smoothie Bar is back in action at the Elementary School this month. Parent volunteers have been rolling up their sleeves behind the scenes, using the newly-renovated staffroom as their prep space—chopping, blending, and serving up nutrient-packed drinks like “Go Go Green” and “Red Rush” smoothies, alongside our kitchen team. Embracing St. George’s philosophy of making healthy choices every day, our students continue to explore new foods, including protein-rich vegetarian alternatives.
 
This initiative and others have been elevated to new heights thanks to a generous donation from the Odette and Joey Basmaji Foundation and the dedication of our volunteers. More updates on our health and wellness initiatives will be shared in the months to come—stay tuned!
