FROM THE NURSE
FROM THE PTO
Thank you to everyone for a successful Winterfest. We could never have done it without the help of all of the volunteers. Your time and effort for the weeks leading up to and the night of Winterfest allowed us to raise money that will go back to Governor Winslow School and all of our children.
IN OUR COMMUNITY
CAMP INVENTION
For kids looking for a fun, summer learning opportunity, you might consider Camp Invention. Camp Invention is a fun, innovative, and creativity based program. Campers will spark their creativity and build collaboration skills while controlling their very own flight simulation robot, protecting Earth’s ecosystems, designing the ultimate sports complex and learning the value of their ideas! Local educators will lead fun, hands-on STEM activities inspiring children to ask questions, overcome obstacles and be confident in their innovative ideas! After a week of experimenting, collaborating and creating each camper will get to take home their very own customizable robot!
If you have questions about the program please visit the Camp Invention website or email Amy Fultz at afultz@mpsd.org.
Camp Invention 2020 in Marshfield will be held Monday, June 22 - Friday, June 26 from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m at Governor Winslow School.
