Fall Fest Is Here! This Friday, October 9 from 5:30-8:00 pm. Tickets are on sale now at the school and will also be available at the event. Purchase your tickets for the festival booths, raffle, dinner and drinks. Please bring your family, friends and neighbors and have a GREAT TIME.
This week will be very exciting at St. Matthew's. We have already had the fire truck come for a visit on Monday, which was a BIG hit! All the 3 year old classes went outside to meet the firemen and see the truck. After 5 minutes, the firemen received a call and had to leave, but luckily they returned 20 minutes later and the kids were able to hear the firemen talk about fire safety. The best part was when each of the children were able to get in the firetruck and have a first-hand experience.
We will be very busy learning about fire safety the rest of this week. We made "smoke art" on Monday and the art is up now for viewing in the hallway. We are going to learn how "fire eats air" in a science experiment tomorrow. Everyone will get a chance to create their own fire truck with mixed-media art.
Next week we will be moving into Fall Fun. I cannot believe how quickly this year is already flying by. We have conferences coming up and I have posted a sign-up sheet on the classroom door. Please let me know by email or quickly at the door if you need to arrange for another time or day.
Reminder: Picture orders are due this Friday!
I am looking forward to seeing everyone at the Fall Fest. I will be there with my whole family!
Fire Safety:
*If there is a fire, do not hide! "Stay low and go".
*Call 9-1-1 if there is fire or emergency!
*Do not be afraid of the firemen. There are there to help. The firemen put on there protective clothes to show the children what they will look like if they come to a fire.
*If your clothes catch on fire: "Stop, Drop and Roll".
*Please check your smoke detectors at home at least once a month.
