School-wide Theme: Gratitude!
June?! I really cannot believe it’s June and that we have only 9 more days! In honor of our monthly theme I just want to say how insanely grateful I am to be a part of this incredible team! I absolutely love coming to work each day and spending time with you, and I love the work we do together in service to our community! Thank you for showing up as yourselves each and every day, and for being the amazing people that you are. I am truly grateful that I get to be part of the Amity community!
A very Happy Birthday to Brad on Wednesday of this week!
A few notes to get you going on this busy week…
1) Camp Amity today and tomorrow! I love Spring camp! Remember to wear your new Camp t-shirt.
2) Our last Cafe Amity of the year is on Wednesday, Grade 3 is hosting.
3) SIW is site-based this week. Please use the time to work on Grows and Glows, or other pressing work that needs your attention.
4) Last Fire Drill of the year on Thursday at 10:35am!
5) Kinder and New Family orientation on Thursday from 4:30-5pm. For Grades 1-5 there is nothing formal to present, just a meet and greet of students who will be new to Amity next year and will be in your class. Patti will provide you with info.
6) Amity BBQ on Thursday from 5-7pm! We’ll need help with set up after school, grilling and serving during the event, and clean up after the event. Please plan to help out during one of these times. Your help is greatly appreciated!
7) Grade 2 will host a celebration of learning on Thursday after Community Time.
8) Class gifts for Grade 5–just making sure you are thinking and/or working on this! We’ll share these gifts on Wednesday morning, June 10.
