 Hello Families!

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY!

Field Trip Update: The First Grade teachers are keeping an eye on the weather for November 18th. Currently it is predicted that it will be 30 degrees. The 8th grade teachers and 1st grade teachers are coming up with potential solutions if it gets colder. Below are some possible solutions. We are going to continue to check the weather and make a final decision on Wednesday (NOV 16th) and communicate to families via email.

Possible solutions: 

• Flip Flopping our schedule and go on the walk in the afternoon (1:30-2:30).
• Go on a short walk on school property.
• Come up with a alternative activity inside (craft, games, etc)

*** Teachers will make the decision on November 16 and email families. 

See last week's blog for overview of the Field Trip!

If we do go on our nature walk students will need to wear weather appropriate clothing, bring a labelled water bottle, and a label morning snack. 

For our fall activities First Grade is in need of a few supplies. Below is a link for a sign up for some items. If you are able and willing please sign up to donate!
