Summer Fun

Hopefully all the in-coming fifth graders are enjoying their summer adventures!  Are you having fun with friends and family?  Are you going anywhere special?  Have you read any good books?  Have you learned anything new or exciting?

Summertime in Haiti is full of adventures.  Here are some of the boys from the children's home having fun, playing, eating, and doing lots of reading!

Last Day of School...

It was the last day of school.  No more morning work or lunch bells for a while.  We ended the year with a really fun and beautiful day together.  Looking forward to a summer of fun and then another great year with this amazing class in fifth grade!

Summer Reading at the Pillsbury Library

There are so many summer reading adventures awaiting you at the Pillsbury Free Library!

The Fells

The fourth graders went on an outdoors adventure!  We met Mrs. Stowell from the Lake Sunapee Protective Agency at The Fells (The John Hay Estate) and went exploring our local ecosystem!  As a special treat, we were able to join in with Ms. Walters and her fourth graders from New London for a combined trip!  What fun we all had learning more about the Lake Sunapee watershed!
