“We're going to have to set a new goal now. We just keep crushing it.”

Kayla Monaghan, a French immersion teacher at Fletcher’s Creek Senior Public School, located near Steeles Avenue and Hurontario Street, knew she wanted to do something during the holiday season to help others. She reached out to Regeneration Brampton, a not-for-profit that provides services for people experiencing homelessness and poverty, to find out what her school could do to give back to their community.

“One of the most important things, when their feet get cold, you know their whole body can get cold, as feet help regulate temperature. So socks are really needed.”“We made it into a little competition just to get more socks brought in,” she said. “The class that brings in the most is going to get a pizza party.”

“Our original goal was one pair for every student and we've surpassed that,” Monaghan said. “Then we made our next goal 1,200.”A Christmas tree full of socks at Fletcher’s Creek Senior Public School.
