Week of April 24-28

I hope everyone enjoyed their Spring Break!  The countdown has begun and we are hoping for nice weather from here on out!  In May, we will be taking quite a few field trips.  Here are the dates for those:

Tuesday, May 9th - Swan Lake - We leave at 12:30 and return at 2:30.  Matt will be taking us on a hike and teaching us about different animals that live in the park.

Friday, May 12th - Toyne's in Breda - We will leave at 12:45 and return at 2:25.  We will tour the factory and see how fire trucks are made.

Tuesday, May 23rd - Quandt's and the Recycling Center - We leave at 8:45 and return at 10:15.  We will take a bus ride through Quandt's and watch the different machines and learn about how they recycle different parts of cars, trucks, etc.  They even smash a bus or camper for us.  (Best part!!) We then will tour the Recycling Center.

Thursday, May 25th - Northwest Park Class Picnic - We tentatively have this scheduled.  The school board is supposed to vote on what the last day of school will be so this may change.  More info. on this later....

If you would like to meet us at any of these field trips, just let me know!
