Spring is here!

March (and April) Madness...

With warmer days, snow is melting, sap is running and there is plenty of mud everywhere, including our school's playground. It is still wise to bring boots to school so when outside, students don't have to worry about getting their sneakers wet and muddy. 

We do go outside every day now, to everyone's delight! Finally, the area around the basketball hoop is dry so that's a popular activity. The playground structure area offers lots of muddy spots and what's more fun for kids than going down a slide and landing in the middle of a muddy puddle...with boots on, that is! So the spring fever is definitely affecting all of us, in a good way!

Since the weather is still quite unpredictable, we chose to go to Sugarbush Adventure Zone for our March 29th half-day field trip. Once again, we had a good number (26) of students sign up and we hope all of them had a good time. Bouncy houses were most popular but children also used the basketball and tennis courts plus some played ping-pong. 
We are hoping that for our next and last field trip this school year, in May, will be an outdoor one.

We would like to remind everyone about Find Your Own Stride program starting April 23rd. Please return the registration forms
soon so we'll know how many T-shirts, snacks and other items will be needed. It is also very helpful for the coach to know how many students to expect. Thank you!

Happy Spring to All!
