Friday

We had a fantastic last Friday of the school year today at the Wildlife Park. We enjoyed the falcon and bear presentations and I think we all learned a lot. What a great way to finish our habitat study. Thank you to all of the parents who drove and spent the day with us at the park. At the band concert on Monday they are asking the students to bring a $2 donation as part of the Me to We fundraiser for Sierra Leone. We are also accepting donations again this year for part of project Nicaragua. They are asking for clothes, old bikes and any school supplies. Have a great weekend!

The children just reminded me that this is the last Thursday that they will be in school this year. The year has gone so fast!!

We are off to the Wildlife Park tomorrow. Please make sure that your child is dressed for the weather with sunscreen, a water bottle and a hat. We will be walking for most of the day so please make sure you have comfortable shoes on. If the weather is nice I will allow them to play in the water park at the Wildlife Park if they have a bathing suit and a towel.

Have a good night!
