Linked here is a charming story on Sarah Jordan, a nine-year-old who did outstanding work in the annual food drive. She set a goal of collecting one tonne of food and actually doubled her goal, collecting more than two tonnes of food (4664 pounds) and nearly $2,000 in donations. This was the Leaside students fourth year holding the food drive to collect donations for the Daily Bread Food Bank and this year she expanded it to every class at Northlea Elementary and Middle School and the community with a bin at Tremlett’s Valu Mart. There is a very nice picture by Dan Pearce of Sarah and her sister Claire in Inside.Toronto.com.
