Dress for the Weather!

Field Day Notice:

Although we have two plans for Field Day (an outside plan and an inside plan), my last check of the weather only says "light rain" for tomorrow.  Staff will not make a final decision until Friday morning.  

This is a reminder to dress for the weather!!  Please be sure your child has layers (sweatshirt, rain coat, windbreaker, etc) and extra socks in the event that we hold Field Day outside with wet grass or "light rain".  It's better to be prepared and end up with inside activities than to not be prepared and end up wet and cold all day!

This Week in Pictures

Wow!  What an eventful week!  Two field trips brought us plenty of excitement!  I would like to take a moment to thank all of the volunteers that helped make our field trips a success.  We could not experience our field trips in such an amazing way without all of your help!  Also, families of Mrs. Pelkey's room, if there was an award for the MOST volunteers - I'm sure our class would win!  What a turn out!

Another Thank You goes to the Center Drive School PTG.  The PTG funded our trip to the Abbe Museum as well as paid for ice cream in Bar Harbor!

Here are a few photos of our adventures this week:

Listening to traditional Penobscot stories.


Learning some traditional Wabenaki dances.




Scratch art designs inspired by the etching that Maine Native Americans have done on birch bark.




All of us at Moose Point State Park.

Finding "treasures" in the tide pools.



Lunch break!

Playing games in the field.

This event is to say "Thank You" to all who have volunteered at Center Drive School.  If you have volunteered your time, your talents, or made a donation this school year please join us on Thursday night for an opportunity to mingle with other volunteers and win raffle prizes.
