Pre-K 3 and 4 Pumpkin Patch Info!
Juan Diego Academy Oct. 11, 2016
Dear Parents,
Each classroom needs to collect money from their parents no later than tomorrow morning. PARENTS PAY $6.00 AND CHILDREN PAY $6.00 AS WELL AS THE OLDER BROTHERS AND SISTER NEED TO PAY 6.00 TO THEIR CHILD'S CLASSROOM TEACHER!
We are finding out that some parents don't realize that if you don't pay us for the field trip, you will be charged more over there since your payment is not part of our school check!!!! The school check is going to be written out tomorrow morning so don't wait until right before the field trip to give us your money please!!!!!!!!! The check will have already been done.
Bus ride- We need to get a count of how many parents are driving their own children there. You still have to pay us if you are driving your own children there.
On the bus we are approximating about 2 parents from each class joining their Pre-K child on the bus. Your child may ride on the bus if you like and you can follow us there in your car. There may be more spaces but since we don't know from some of you who is riding on the bus and who is being driven, it is going to be a last minute decision. We have 50 spots and 45 children+5 teachers. How many of those children are going on the bus is still a mystery due to field trip forms not being returned with that information.
Children will eat lunch here before leaving on the field trip. Breakfast will be the same. There is no need to buy your children other food there please. It will sadden the other children who did not get popcorn etc. bought for them. After the bus leaves and you are driving home, you can go ahead and buy treats for only your child. Thank you for your understanding!
Free Dress tomorrow for all Pre-K children. Do not wear your uniform. Wear rubber boots or old shoes that you don't mind gettting muddy. Jackets please for all the children. The children will get a plastic bag and their name written with a marker on the pumpkin they choose. It should not be bigger than they can carry.
There will be extended care provided for children coming back from the field trip to the school. The arrival time there should be around 12:30. Teachers need to go in and get tickets for all their guests while you wait for your tour guide to take you to the spot where they will be speaking to the children about how a pumpkin grows and they also show them different kinds of pumpkins. They may be dividing the groups up since we are a large number. After the presentation I believe there is a wagon ride around the pumpkin patch. There is also a barn with animals and a water shooting duck game plus an open maze for them to play in. We will be returning to the bus around 2:30 p.m. That means we get back at 3:00 at school.
Thank you so much parents!! I am praying for wonderful weather for you tomorrow. I wish I was going!! You will have great fun!! Take lots of pictures!!
We may need some for our Facebook page! Love and Peace, Sra. Farias
