Weekly Blog 11/29

Dear Wines Families,
I hope you all had an enjoyable Thanksgiving. The building was a little lethargic on Monday but we were back to business as we work to finish 2017 strong here at Wines. Here is the news of the week—including the Nov./Dec. Wines Times newsletter.

Wines Times
Below is a link to the Nov./Dec. Wines Times newsletter. Please take some time to read through all the important information.

Floor Hockey on Hiatus until January
Our highly popular Friday morning floor hockey sessions are on hiatus until we return from winter break. Ms. Wahl has begun her annual gymnastics unit meaning she has lots of equipment to set up each morning. We will return on Friday, January 12. I want to take a quick moment to thank Jeff Sander and Katie Page Sander who run our weekly games for their dedication to providing this unique opportunity to any Wines student who is interested.

Book Fair Next Week!
Our annual Book Fair is begins next Tuesday. The Book Fair Family Night is Tuesday evening from 6:30-8:00. Volunteers are still needed for some shifts – please sign up on the link below if you can help out!

The online book fair is open now. The online fair will remain open until the in person fair closes and books will ship to the school in time for the holidays.  All purchases benefit Wines!  http://www.scholastic.com/bf/wineselementaryschool
If you have any questions about Book Fair, please email Stacey Noel at sknmd17@gmail.com.

All 4 Books
Related to the Book Fair, coming home in this week's Wednesday Folder you'll find All 4 Books donation bags for your spare change.  Any donations will be used to buy books for our library.  Students can sign their names and (if desired) color the boot attachment.  Thanks!

Buddy Bench Collections Continue
The Wines Girl Scouts are collecting plastic caps and lids to recycle into a Buddy Bench to place on Wines grounds! There is a box near the front office for collection of Caps: drink bottle, flip-top/spout, medicine bottle, milk, detergent, hair spray, toothpaste, deodorant & any cap with 2, 4 or 5; as well as Lids: yogurt, PB, butter, mayo, coffee, cottage cheese, Cool whip & Rx. We need 200 lbs. (approx. 5-50 gal waste bags) to make a 4' bench so EVERY BIT helps! Bring them from home, save them from your lunch, collect them from your neighbors or coworkers.
Contact Michelle Chien at mknezek@hotmail.com or 248-250-2512 with any questions. 

That’s all for this week.


David
