Last Day of School -- Goodbye Family Picnic
2025-06-05 17:30 - 19:30
Our Goodbye Family Picnic provides a concrete experience for the children through which to begin to recognize the changes and endings that come with our school year ending. The evening begins in the Parish Hall where children from each class will present a brief skit of a favorite song which they have prepared. After the Parish Hall, weather permitting, we will move outside for a picnic supper on the grassy area beyond Whiting House. Each family should bring their own blankets/chairs, drinks and you may order a pizza through the school or bring your own picnic style dinner. Teachers will hand out a personal “Goodbye Book” to your child and we will end with a watermelon dessert!

Movement Day #2
2019-03-20 09:00 - 10:30
Children will have the chance to move from classroom to classroom as they participate in a variety of gross motor activities incorporating science, art and music. Each classroom will set up a theme that will be both fun and challenging, while providing learning opportunities that vary from child to child depending on their interests and skills. Please be sure children wear sneakers or other rubber soled shoes on these days as they will be doing lots of gross motor activities and we want everyone to be safe.

Picture Day
2019-02-06 09:00 - 12:00
Wonder Years Portraits will be here on Wednesday, February 7th and Thursday, February 8th for “School Picture Days.” If Wednesday or Thursday are not regular school days for your child, you may come on either day between 9:00 and 10:30 and the photographer will fit you into the schedule. Siblings are welcome to have their picture taken as well. Just fill out and return the attached sign-up form. Be sure to include the names of any siblings having their photo taken on the form. Families wanting siblings included should plan to be here sometime during 9 a.m. and 10:30 a.m.

All children that are photographed will be included in our whole school and class composite pictures. These are at no additional cost to you and do not require you to purchase anything. So even if you are not considering purchasing pictures, consider having your child photographed so they may be included.

Approximately two weeks after Picture Day, a viewing date will be set up for families to come in to choose and pay for their portraits.
