SATURDAY BAKERY SALE – TREATS FOR A CAUSE
Most Saturdays, Masaryk School transforms into a bustling bakery booth. Our bakery sale features an array of Czech “pečivo” and more! Indulge in the rich flavors of sourdough bread, bread rolls, various kinds of koláče, vánočka, dumplings, and some tasty weekend specials.
If the bakery sale is happening, an email will be sent on Wednesday with a Google Form to place your order. To receive these emails, kindly provide your email address to the Parči baker family at parci@yahoo.com.
How It Works:
Once you have provided your email to the baker family, you will receive an email on Wednesday with an attached Google Form if the bakery sale is happening that week. If you do not receive an email, it means there is no bakery sale for that Saturday. Open the Google Form and sign up for your desired treats by Thursday at midnight. Then, come to the school on Saturday between 10:00 AM and 1:00 PM to pick up your order.
Please note: Not all items listed in the menu above will be available every week. The weekly selection will be reflected in the Google Form, so be sure to choose from the options provided for that week.
📅 ORDER BY: Thursday, midnight
📍 PICK UP: Saturday, 10:00 AM - 1:00 PM at T. G. Masaryk School

BAKERY SALE 🥨 RANNÍ CHVILKA POEZIE OD PEKAŘOVY ŽENY
Na vědomí se dává,
že tuto sobotu se ve škole bude servírovat nejen káva,
ale také kokosky, koláče a další pečivo.

proto se opět vrháme na pečení,
aby se díky podpoře od vás všech,
mohlo postavit nové pískoviště i altán na oddech.
