This is a reminder of the field trip to Sitara on Thursday. Please send your children with their normal backpacks so they can still carry their lunch and normal school work- there will be time in the morning and when we return for classroom work.

A few reminders:

1. Regular backpacks
2. Wear the school uniform
3. Do not send money as there is no chance to buy
4. The school food policy is still in effect on field trips!  Please send only healthy food.  Any unhealthy food will be sent home.

Thank you so much for your cooperation!  We are looking forward to seeing Ali Baba and the 4 Thieves!
Grade 1 and Grade 2 Values
Grade 1 and Grade 2 are learning about Values.  Each month the teacher will pick a value for the children to learn about.  This is helping the children to learn how to play nicely with their friends, take care of themselves and respect people around them. 

This month, the Value is Friendship.  The children will be given a Value card if a teacher catches them showing friendship.  The child then puts their card in a draw box.  Every 2 weeks, Grade 1A, Grade 1B, Grade 2A and Grade 2B will meet for a Values Celebration.  We will talk about the Value, and we will also draw 4 names from the box.  These 4 children are chosen randomly!  They will have morning snack in the Elementary office with Ms. Sanaa as a special prize!  They will have hot chocolate in the cold months, and some popcorn in the warm months!

I am looking forward to seeing our kids showing the values!

October Value: Friendship
Friendship is having kind words to other people, helping people, giving a hug or playing with someone who you don't always play with
