THANKSGIVING MASS

Tomorrow at 10:00 am our students will be participating in our first school mass in the gymnasium.  They will receive a blessing at communion time.  Please ask your child about what he/she saw and learnt while at mass.

SEPTEMBER SCHOLASTIC ORDERS

Thank you to all the families that participated in our first Scholastic Book order!
We placed an order for $181.35 permitting us to order new Fall books for our classrooms!  Just a reminder that October's order is due on the 15th. Thanks again for supporting our early reading program.

Panetta/Bruyn

A very friendly reminder...
  1. Library books need to be returned weekly with their bag.  If your child would like to keep their book for a second week, he/she can take it out again.  The bag must always accompany the book in order to keep the book clean and neat. Thank you for your understanding in this matter.

    2.   Please keep all toys at home.  This not only becomes a problem in class with losing them
           or arguing over them but it is a also an issue on the bus.  The students take the toys out of 
          their bags, they drop them, they get off their seat to pick them up or they scream that it
          has fallen.  This becomes a safety issue for all children on the bus.  Thank you so much for
          cooperation on this matter.     
         
Used Batteries
Our school is once again collecting used batteries for recycling purposes.  We want to make sure they do not end up in our landfill.  This is already a worthwhile activity but in order to make it more fun, the class who collects the most batteries will be treated to a pizza lunch. 

Follow-up on the Veggie study in Mrs. Panetta and Miss Bruyn's class.  We received a variety of veggies and the students are having fun looking at them, smelling them and holding them.  The students had an opportunity to use their clip boards to draw or print their observations and will continue to do so throughout the week.  Tomorrow we will check for boyancy...will it float or sink?   On Thursday, we will cook up the spaghetti squash and everyone will have an opportunity to have a taste.  Thank you so much for your participation in this fun inquiry!
