Next Thursday the 29th we have our field trip to go potato picking. Please send in gloves and a bag to bring the potatoes home. It's a good idea to also send rain boots for your child in a bag clearly labeled with their name. We want them to have regular shoes for the playground, but it might be a little muddy where they are digging potatoes.
Next Friday the 30th is our International Children's Festival. Your child may come in a costume or traditional clothes from their country or culture. Please make sure they can easily go to the toilet by themselves. Please also keep any toy weapons home, including swords, shuriken, or guns. These are never allowed at school. We will be having a special snack in the morning, so your child can bring cookies, cake, doughnuts, etc. This is a snack only for your child, as they are not allowed to share food in the classroom for safety, even if they are friends and share outside of school. Please help me by reminding them that this is a special treat for this day only.
As always, please message me or Ms. Maki if you have any questions or concerns.
Thank you and have a great weekend!
Ms. Darby and Ms. Maki
