Hill Aerospace Museum Field Trip

Parents,


Due to the extensive high cost of the bus transportation for our field trip on Friday, we are asking for a head count of who will be taking their child with them after the field trip from the museum. We found that in previous years most parents have chosen to take their child from the museum, leaving us with an empty bus going home that we are still having to pay for. Can you please let us know as soon as possible if you will be checking out your child at the museum and taking them with you instead of riding the bus back to the school? Please note that upon arrival at the school, we will be arriving shortly before school is dismissed.

Our final field trip is Friday, May 24th from 9:30am-1:15pm to the Hill Aerospace Museum.  Please have your student wear their RED uniform shirt for this field trip.  They will need to bring a sack lunch from home unless they ordered one ahead of time.   We will be leaving the school promptly at 9:30am following the talent show assembly and returning to the school by 1:15pm.  We have our field trip groups arranged but you are happy to join your students group if you are not listed as a designated chaperone.  

**Chaperones:  Please bring a backpack to carry your groups lunches in.  You are able to eat lunch with your group when the children want to.  There are picnic tables out front.  We will have the students hold onto their lunches during the assembly and meet at the front picnic table area under the big bomber for a group photo and to gather your students lunches. 
Thank you so very much for being willing to chaperone a group of students!  We appreciate you!

This Friday

We are so excited to announce that this Friday we will be having an optional dress down day. This is a very special dress down day for Mrs. McBride. The money from this dress down will go directly to a project that Mrs. McBride and her son are working on. In July, they will be going to Fiji on a service trip to help families in the village of Narikoso. This village was directly hit by Cyclone Winston and is still recovering over two years later. They will be helping in rebuilding structures as well as helping the villagers with business development, personal hygiene, sustainability, and English lessons. If you would like to donate money you can bring money for the dress down day this Friday. Thank you so much for your help and support for this exciting project.
