I'm sure you've all noticed that we are having very warm weather this week! Please make sure your child is dressed appropriately. I still believe layers are the best for early morning temperatures. We are hydrating and taking cool-down breaks after recess and PE.
This Friday is our annual Field Day. The forecast is showing that it will still be in the 80s. Please make sure to send your child with a bottle of water as we will be outside most of the day.
