Field Day: Where the Wild Things Are!
This year's field day's theme is Where the Wild Things Are. It will be held on Monday, June 3, 2019. Grades K-4 will be participating in over twenty fun activities. The activities will combine skills that the students have learned and the story line of the book.
It will be great fun; however, we need help. We need approximately 26 adults either to stock, run and supervise the water tables or run activities. Running an activity can be challenging and fun! While assisting one or two children to complete the activity, the adult needs to keep an eye on the 4 or 5 children waiting on line. The activities themselves are fairly simple to understand. We are also planning a craft table. We will need 4 adults to work there. The time commitment is from 7:45am to 11:10am on June 3rd. Please be prompt if you able to help. This is a non-competitive day so the children are generally laughing and enjoying themselves.
This is a great chance to make up some volunteer hours. If you want to help, please email me at bbauer@stmschool.org. Please let me know in the email whether you'd like to work a water table, run an activity or supervise the arts and crafts table. Since I am busy with the wild ones, I will NOT be able to send a confirmation email.
Don't miss out on the chance to "Roar your mighty roar" with us.
