Field Trip Fees:
Please remember to pay the field trip fees. The notice came home at the end of September. The cost for all the field trips and in-school activities is $88.00. Payment can be made online by credit card as school fees. If online payment does not work for you, you may come in to pay using debit or credit at the office. We have been paying for our field trips so your prompt payment will help us with these fees. If you have any concerns with the lump sum payment, please contact Mrs. Pulfer, ([email protected]).
Volunteers for Monday mornings
There is a small group of moms who are reading Monday mornings and rotating through themselves to watch younger siblings in order so that they can volunteer. One of the moms lives right across from POW, which is where the childcare is taking place. If you are interested in this, please contact Andrea.

What we did today:
- We went on the Rainbow Bridge two times. (BB and GO)
- We visited other art galleries. (GT)
- We visited with an artist working with another combining music and drawing.
- We saw Carmen and she took us on a journey. After we finished our journey we got to make our own stories about our journey to take home. (KH)
- On our journey we had to go through a cave and we had to show a scared face. Then we went to another obstacle and we had to make a sad face. And then we had to cross a river feeling/showing happy. Then we had to do 12 jumping jacks feeling/showing happy. (Room 9)
Daily Challenge:
Tomorrow is our last day at the Arts Commons. What is one of the places you would like to revisit, like an art gallery or maybe we could go to City Hall and look at the art on the walls there. We will talk about it in the morning before we go.
