October 2021

We had a small Halloween celebration today since the holiday is on the weekend. The students listened to a short presentation about literacy tips for children. Then we invited the children from childcare to join us and we learned a rhyming story called Five Little Pumpkins.  Following story time was the much-awaited Trick-or-Treating through the hall to each classroom.

Everyone loves a field trip! We look forward to our annual visit to the local pumpkin patch.  Children really benefit when exposed to new experiences. This outing includes a petting zoo, playing in the shelled feed corn pit, slides, mazes, hayrides and taking a pumpkin home. There are so many sensory opportunities: the texture of animal fur, the dryness of the cornstalks and hay, and the smooth vegetables.

We are so lucky to have fabulous custodians at our school. It is hard work to keep our facilities spotless and sanitary. Here’s a shout-out to the people who put in hours of effort to provide a safe and comfortable learning environment – thanks Tami, Sue, Jessica, Robert and Prince!
