All,
1. Lego Building Club this Monday at 3 at Long Hollow! Please bring in your decorated boxes filled with your legos! Miss Nicole will also be introducing a new memory verse program for each letter in LEGO and the children will earn prizes for memorizing the verses!
2. Bud, Not Buddy at the NCT this Tuesday! I will be collecting money this Monday! $7 per ticket-please respond to the evite!
3. Fun Friday, October 8th at the Bonita Pkwy fire station at 2:00! Please reply to the evite!
4. First Service project due October 18th! Vanderbilt Children’s Hospital has a reverse trick or treat for their kiddos and we are going to provide them with the goody bags to pass out! We need to collect 200 goody bags in order to cover all children.
Candy is not allowed!
Crayola brand crayons, markers, colored pencils
stickers
bubbles
construction paper
coloring books
puzzle books
playing cards
This is very doable!!! If 20 of us provided 10 goody bags (filled) each, that would be 200!
Please let me know if you would like to participate and how many you will provide!
5. Book Club has been rescheduled for Monday October 11th (This is the make-up for September and we will be discussing The Boxcar Children)which means there will be no PE that day. (I do have a mom who has stepped up to be my substitute in the future(Thank you Sanchel!) so that I will not have to reschedule again if ever I or my children are sick or cannot be there.
6. I have the October books for book club and will be passing those out Monday.
7.God’s World News- I have 3 interested so far! If we have 7 or more (can be different age levels), we can get the $14.95 rate. Please let me know if you are interested ASAP! This is a Christian current event news magazine for children, Prek-1st, 2-3rd, 4th-5th, 6th and up.
8. The deadline to register for choir is Monday, October 4th! $12 per month. Right now, we have 5th and up choir at 12:00, Prek-4th at 2:00, however, we must have at least 5 in each age group to offer separate classes. If we do not get that, then we will have one combined class
.
9. Etiquette regarding field trips: I would ask that if you reply yes to the evite, please understand that you are committed! Do not respond until you can commit fully…I understand that sickness happens, but please do not take the “something else better came up” attitude!!! Our trips are number dependent and backing out at the last minute can affect the whole group!!!!
Also, I have asked for no maybes in the evites and yet I still receive them… Please, do not reply Maybe to the evites…I cannot respond to the zoo, or any other business that we “might” have 50 but we “might” only have 20!!! Maybes do me no good! Do not respond until you can say yes or no!
One of the benefits of forming a hs group, is that we can go together for field trips and therefore qualify for a group rate. That cannot happen if we all “march to the beat of our own drum” and quite frankly is more than a little frustrating to me when I take the time to make these arrangements!!!
Thank you for your cooperation!
10.Huntsville Space and Rocket Center- we are scheduled for the Ultimate Field Trip experience on Friday November 12th arriving at 10 AM-
This includes a guided tour, Imax movie, a class on the moon taught by a scientist, hamburger lunch box (or veggie burger) and free time to explore on our own. This is expected to be an all day field trip. The cost will be $25 per person child or adult. While this is our priciest field trip of the semester, it is going to be a blast and is a great deal compared to the individual prices of these activities. The Narnia exhibit will be $15 extra if you choose to view it as well, but it is totally optional.
We must have a group of 20 or more to get this rate!
No passes can be combined with this deal.
This package cannot be broken up to have some opting out of lunch etc.
We are basically getting the lunch and class for a few dollars each.
I will be sending out an evite about this later tonight. I must have all money collected and a final headcount by November 1st! No Exceptions!!
11. Finally, I would love to take advantage of this great fall weather and plan a “movie in the park” kind of experience sometime soon for all of our families, however, I do not have the projector that we would need…does anyone have one or have access to one?
If so please let me know!
I think that is it for now!
Happy Friday!
