The Penguin Patch Holiday shop is coming to our school! On December 15 – 19, 2025, your child will be able to participate in an educational, fun, and exciting experience.
Parent volunteers will assist children while shopping to allow them to purchase surprise gifts for loved ones. We offer over 100 different gifts that can be purchased for as little as $.50 and up to $12.00 each. The gift items offered are Kid Tested Mom Approved. The Holiday Shop is a fun, unique way to empower your children with generosity!
Please ensure that the Gift List Budget Envelope is completed and returned (with cash or check) to school on the date that your child’s class is scheduled to shop. Please don’t let your child miss this opportunity to grow and experience the spirit of giving!
All checks should be made payable to: Normandy Village Elementary School
