Dear Wines Families,
I hope this message finds you well on this rainy day.
Interestingly, today was our first indoor lunch recess of the year. That speaks
to the wonderful weather we’ve had this fall. I have just a few announcements
today:
Halloween
Our Halloween parade will begin at 2:30 on Friday. We will
exit the building and head out Cooley. We will go left on Saunders Crescent and
then left on Hillridge. We will then enter the Forsythe property near their
soccer fields from the entranc on Hillridge. Parents, you are more than welcome
to walk with us! You can also station yourself along the sidewalk from Forsythe
to see the entire parade.
Classrooms will be celebrating either before or immediately
after the parade. Please refer to communications from your child’s teacher
regarding celebration plans. Please keep costumes fun and positive. Absolutely no fake weapons or fake blood
will be allowed. Students should bring their costumes in a bag, as they
will not change until the afternoon. If you would prefer not to have your child
participate in Halloween activities, please let me know and we will have an
alternative activity available.
Science and Builders Fair
All students at Wines are welcome to participate in
the “Science and Builders Fair” on November 5th from 7pm
to 8 pm. Registration only requires Name, Grade and a commitment to
Science or Builders Fair- you do not have to have your idea finalized! Registration
closes on November 3rd- but it's certainly not too late to come
up with an idea and make it happen! Remember, students have no school on Monday
and Tuesday of next week providing the perfect opportunity to start and finish
projects! There are lots of resources on the website to help
inspire! We are looking for more adults to help! If you have a love
for Science or Building please sign up on the volunteer page to be an
evaluator. (As a friendly reminder, it works from most mobile phones but
access is blocked at any umich computer.)
Do You Have Old Wines
T-Shirts?
We are working on a project for our Blue Ribbon Ceremony and
we are looking for old Wines T-shirts or sweatshirts. If you have older
children who have come through Wines or perhaps if you are a former Wines
student with “classic” shirts sitting around, we can use them! Please note that
if you donate your shirt, you will not get it back. However, it will become
part of something very special!
Walk to School
Friday is our final Walk to School Day as Walktober comes to a close. Big thanks
to Anita Fontana and our PTO for another fantastic month!
No School Next Monday
and Tuesday
There is no school Monday, Nov. 2 and Tuesday, Nov. 3.
Teachers will be working on report cards on Monday and engaged in professional
development on Tuesday.
That’s all for this week!
David
