Happy Friday! Lots of Info!!

Happy Friday everyone. Thank you to parents who
brought bikes or helped out at the Bike Rodeo this
afternoon.
It was a busy day in Kindergarten, following a very
short week for the students. Today we learned the letter
sounds and actions for "ee" and "or". Last day we met
Buzz the bee who introduced us to the letter "z" sound.
We read Chicka Boom 1, 2, 3 and practiced our counting
forwards and backwards! The Bike Rodeo was fun, even
though it sure was a little chilly!
In your child's agenda there are many forms and letters
of information, including the permission forms for both the
Greenhouse and the Circle Square Ranch field trips. It is
very important that you fill out, sign and return these
forms with your child the next school day. I am including a
copy of the informational letters here for your convenience.
Have a Great weekend.

June is just around the corner and with it we hope to see some sunshine.
Thank you to all the parents who helped their child prepare for the oratory.
The students did a wonderful job! June will be filled with many busy days and although these dates will be included in the June school newsletter I wanted to provide you with some additional information as well.

June will see us completing our study of living things; plants and animals, with a visit to a greenhouse. This visit will take place on June 3rd in the morning. Although this is the same date as the Track and Field day, since the Kindergarten students are not participating in the events this should not pose a problem. The students will still be able to view some events in the afternoon and be given the opportunity to purchase items from the canteen as was noted in a previous letter.

In order for students to participate in the Greenhouse tour I need you to complete and sign the following permission slip and return it as soon as possible. Students will still need to bring a morning snack item and a lunch that does not require warming up(no glass items please). The students will be taking a bus to J & J Greenhouse, approximately 25 minutes outside of Melville. Here they will participate in a tour, do some planting and then eat their lunch before returning to school.

Kindergarten students will also be taking part in the Miller School Circle Square Ranch Field Trip. Although this is a school wide event, not all grades attend on the same dates. June 7th is the date that has been booked for the Kindergarten class to attend along with the grade 2 students. Once again since this date is nearing quickly we require you to return your permission slip as soon as possible. Additional information regarding this outing is included with your permission slip.
Swimming times have also been booked for the month of June. Please note kindergarten swim times on the June calendar. If you are able to join us during any of the scheduled times, please feel free to come and assist your child or join them in the pool.

Awards Day for Miller School has been set for June 25th at 2:00p.m. On this day the Kindergarten students will also be having their Kindergarten Celebration (Graduation) in the morning. The students will come to school as usual. Parents are then invited to come to join in the Celebration at 10: 30. After a short program, students and parents will enjoy a shared lunch together. In the afternoon, parents are then welcome to attend the
Miller School Awards day that will begin at 2:00 p.m. Since this will be the Kindergarten students final day of school, parents are encouraged to take home all their child’s belongings on this day.

I understand how busy families are, but if you are available to volunteer and assist for any of the above events, please let me know by calling me or indicating it in your child’s agenda.
