Well we are getting to the very busy time of the year for kindergarten. So much going on. With just over a month of school left comes our annual field trips to the local Timberland Library, Tenino Fire Station, and Point Defiance Zoo and Aquarium.
For the zoo trip we need a head count by the end of next week. If you are planning on chaperoning, please indicate that on your child's yellow field trip permission slip. Also please indicate if you need a volunteer application form. I know of a few families who have already indicated more than one parent wanting to come on the zoo trip. Please remember this is a school function and that you may still be responsible for other children, especially if there is more than one adult going in your group. Please also be prepared to pay for the additional adult when you arrive at the zoo.
Our class is not participating in the VIP lunch at the end of the month. This event is for 1st and 2nd graders. This event was in the school newsletter. If at any time you would like to come in and eat with your child at our lunchtime, you are more than welcome. I have had a few parents do that this year.
Next Friday, May 14th is our annual Jog-A-Thon. We will be jogging from 12:45-1:15. If you would like to volunteer for this event (handing out juice/helping with pledge envelopes), please contact the office. I have had several parents in the past show up to walk or jog with their student as well. Feel free to stop by and participate if you would like. There is a pledge sheet your child has brought home. If you would like your child to earn a jog-a-thon t-shirt or Subway lunch with Mr. Thummel, please bring back the pledge sheet the day of the jog-a-thon.
Have a great weekend and enjoy the sunshine!
