WhirlWynd Challenges!
👖👟Dress Down Day👟👖
Rise and shine, Wyndcroft! From 7 AM to 10 AM, every gift counts toward an exciting goal: if we reach 50 donors, the entire school wins a Dress Down Day!
🕵️♂️🔮The Lower School Great Mystery Challenge!🔮🕵️♂️
Attention, young witches and wizards of the Lower School! A magical mystery is afoot at Wyndcroft!
Any class that achieves 100% Parent Participation by noon will receive an enchanted delivery—a scroll containing a riddle that reveals clues to the identity of our Mystery Teacher.
Use your best wizarding wit to decipher the clue, and race (safely, of course!) through the halls in search of the secret classroom. The first class to uncover the Mystery Teacher’s lair will earn a bewitching prize!
Sharpen your wands and ready your minds—the adventure awaits!
💙🎓💛Alumni Challenge!💛🎓💙
Calling All Alumni! The House Cup is on the line, and it’s your turn to join the fray! Our current students battled fiercely in an epic game of Quidditch (check out the magic on our social media!), but the final victory rests in the hands of our alumni.
From 7 PM to 9 PM, every gift made by alumni donors to Team Blue or Team Gold will earn points for their House. These points will be added to the Quidditch totals, and the team with the most points at 9 PM will be crowned the 2025 WhirlWynd House Champion!
$1 - $99 = 10 points
$100 - $499 = 20 points
$500 - $999 = 30 points
$1000 + = 50 points
Class Competitions:
🍬The overall class that raises the most money will win their very own Honeydukes Sweet Trolley! This cart will arrive loaded with themed snacks and goodies and the class gets to enjoy their very own Hogsmeade-style snack break, complete with games, laughter, and a dash of Hogwarts magic.
