Welcome Back! We are so thankful for God's provision for all of us over Spring Break! It's been so fun to hear about all the different adventures that we had over break! God is good! Happy Easter to all of you! Our God is so amazing and we have spent time this week looking at how much Jesus loved us and we have finished up our Easter stories. It was so fun to watch part of the Solar Eclipse and witness an amazing event in our creation! We had the Living Hope Singers join us for Praise time today and it was so fun! They also sang a song for us! Click on the link below the picture to hear the Living Hope Singers!
There are a lot of exciting things coming up in the next few weeks with Kid Town and Tulip Time on the horizon! We are getting back into the swing of things, and we look forward to the wonderful things to come yet this year.
Homework Reminders:
- *Current reading and math pages are due Monday, April 15. Along with your child's first pages of Kid Town Homework- pink reading sheet and blue math sheet and 1 Bible verse to say. Reading slip must be signed!
Kid Town is right around the corner, at the end of April! It’s a fun Social Studies program where we create products and earn “money” for one week, and then the following week we get to work at various businesses (these will be set up in our school gym—a Pizza Parlor, Pet Store, Post Office, Recycling Shop, etc) and shop at the businesses.
April 15-19 will be our creating week where we will design items to sell! (Our room will be cleaned up for our special guests on Thursday.) The week after that, April 22-26 will be our Kid Town week where the gym is set up as stores. We are SO excited to make this happen for the 2nd graders!! We'll need your help from home, encouraging your child to be responsible and get his/her daily homework done in order to earn the money to spend at Kid Town! We will also need some help from parents who are able and the link for sign up genius is below in case you still want to join us!
If you have chosen to be in the “Dutch Heritage” section, remember that you’ll need to wear a Dutch costume. If you chose the “Tulip” section for the parade, you will want to make sure that you have your Holland Christian Walk-a-thon t-shirt ready to go.
Wednesday, May 8 will be a full day for all students due to Tulip Time removing the Wednesday parade. On Thursday, May 9, school will be dismissed for kindergarteners at 11:30am. 1st and 2nd graders will remain at school, eat a sack lunch from home, have recess, change into their apparel (if they choose not to wear it to school that day), and be bused to the parade route. More information will come as we get closer to the parade.
Lost and Found
The office is continuing to update our South Side Lost and Found Album as items come into the gray tub in the office. Please check it out to see if any of these items belong to your child. Feel free to email Rachel Steen, to claim your item(s), and we will be sure to get it into your child's backpack.
