We had a very happy time together! It was so special to share this first PGO event with such nice families! Also Principal Smith joined in the fun!
Kids had delicious vanilla and chocolate ice cream - a variety of sprinkles included- after picnic with parents, they were all smiles as they ran around having good fun. They made a little origami bookmark to take home and the candy I brought was gone, too!
The raffle table was fun - even Mr.Smith won a prize! He said he never wins a thing but yesterday was different. Prizes were from Atkins market, GoBerry yogurts, Sally Beauty, Amherst Cinema and a Fall gift. The winners were delighted!
The 'Zero Waste' activity went very well; I briefly talked about the new 5Rs, then kids followed instructions to save their plastic and paper cups to reuse them again, create something etc. Parents signed up to continue with this important example, so good for everybody and the planet, they said. And we didn't make much trash because of that; we only made less than half the big trash can! Green success! Stay tuned for more 'green' news at school!
Thank you all for a great inspiring time all together! See you at the next social and keep up the ARMS spirit!
