Kindergarten Newsletter for May 8th-12th, 2015

Recap Of The Week: Last week we worked hard practicing for our graduation ceremony. We also made some Father’s Day cards & gifts. We went to the park for recess on Thursday and played with the parachute. And on Friday, we wore pyjamas for our camping theme and made s’mores!

Progress Reports: Report cards will be in your cubby boxes on Monday morning. Hopefully this will give you time to go through it and if necessary, come to me with any questions or comments you may have.

Graduation Program: Our graduation ceremony will be on Tuesday, June 9th at 10:00am. We are hard at work practicing our program every day. The class will sing some songs for you and then we will present each student with a certificate. Afterwards, we will join you for some snacks and watch a slideshow with pictures of the whole school year. This is an important and exciting day for our kids as they get ready to move on from Little Acorn.

Classroom Clean-up: On Monday (June 8th), we will all work together to get the classroom cleaned for summer break. The kids will help out by cleaning toys and taking down bulletin board stuff. This is a great way for the students to get some closure on the year and give back to the class by helping one another. Everyone who helps will get an ice-cream sandwich.

All School Picnic: On June 10th, we will have our annual end of school year picnic at Felida Park from 10:00-12:00. All families are invited to this potluck event. The school will cook/provide the hot dogs and condiments. There is sign-up sheet outside the classroom for your contributions.

Summer Camps: We will have 3 summer camps this year: Art Explosion (June 15-19), Knights & Princesses (July 13-17) and Super Hero Week (July 20-24). Registration has already started. Camp is $95 per child per week; $175 for 2 for one week. There is a $25 non-refundable registration fee that will be applied towards camp tuition.
