Dear parents,

On this Monday May 14th we are running our “Swap Meet,” with many other upper el classes. This will run in the morning from 9-11 am and students can bring baked goods from home (cupcakes, cookies, brownies etc…) and other items they want to swap or sell. However, please remember that school policies still apply with regards to no candy, soda, weapons, or potentially offensive material being traded. Also, we cannot run electricity to the black top where it will be held.

On Monday afternoon we will begin our continent and country report presentations. Some students like to bring food and other artifacts or souvenirs from their country for their presentation. I am more relaxed about what kind of food can be brought this time compared to the International Fair, as it is easier to control. However, please don’t allow your child to bring sloppy food, or food or drinks that can cause the marking or staining of carpets.

Spirit Week also begins next week and here is the rundown again:

Monday May 14th – Crazy Socks Day

Tuesday May 15th – Crazy Hat or Hair Day

Wednesday May 16th – Pajama Day

Thursday May 17th – Occupational Day (Dress as what you’d like to be when you grow up)

Friday May 18th – Dress Down Day (Field Day)

Lastly, I’ve just had a look at our driver situation for going to Crystal Hot Springs on Tuesday and at the moment we still seem to be a couple of drivers short. Please email Ms. Alisha at eventhair@yahoo.com if you can volunteer for this trip.

I hope you have a great weekend!

Many thanks – John
