It's tax time!
This means that starting next week, you can pick up your income tax receipts at the office. Come anytime during school hours to get yours. PRO TIP: It's tempting to ask your children to pick up your receipts but please resist. Stats show that receipts which are NOT picked up by parents are more apt to go missing and we want to you get yours promptly! :) |
