We also had a blast exploring our sense of hearing and making and using our very special rain sticks. We used our school instruments as well as our rain sticks to make music all day long... We also had a very special classroom parade. Be sure to ask your preschool musician all about it!
We are also enjoying observing signs of Fall and even made our own Fall Trees! Be sure to check them out on display in our PreK-3 Art Gallery next time you are in our Learning Center!
On October 7th we will have a visit from the Roxbury Fire Department and we will be spending some time learning about fire safety all week in preparation for their visit. All morning children are invited to stay. If you have not let me know of your intention to have your child stay, please do so as soon as possible. Please see the notice that went home through your child's backpack earlier this week regarding lunch and pick-up procedures for morning children on that day.
Fall Fun Day is right around the corner! It is scheduled for Wednesday, October 16th. We are collecting $7 per student to help cover the expenses for that fun filled day. Please return your payment with your child's name by October 9th. We are also looking for parent volunteers to help us run the stations that morning. Please let me know in you would be interested in helping out.
Our Mums for Mulch fundraiser is underway with all orders due by Tuesday, October 1st. The mums will be delivered right to St. Therese School for your convenience. Pick up date and procedure information will be available shortly.
If you did not receive my email last weekend regarding Emergency Alerts, please notify me and the main office as soon as possible so that we can update the system with all your correct contact information.
