Happy Halloween!

halloween2.jpg My wishes to you all for a safe and happy Halloween!  Please be thoughtful about sending candy in for students to eat at snacktime or lunchtime.  My request is that  you only send in one piece, if any at all.  That would be much appreciated.   Happy Halloween!

Please consider sending one or two items in with your child each month. There is a drop box in the lobby for your items.
October- Canned Meats
Such as beef stew, tuna fish, corned beef hash, canned chicken or ham

Continent Song

                                   Seven continents on the globe,

                                   Count them now with me,

                                    North America, South America

                                    Africa makes three

                                    Europe, Asia, Australia

                                    Are three more that I know,

                                    Don't forget Australia

                                    That's seven, way to go!

bankteller.gif Don't forget!  We will be walking to Ocean National Bank and the Kennebunkport Town Hall on Tuesday.  Please make sure that your child is dressed for walking on Tuesday. 

We will miss art on Tuesday but will have it on Thursday instead. This is part of our study of our community and community workers and what they do for everyone that lives in our town.
