Monday's Tattler



Good morning and welcome to another week at the GS. This week we will be watching The Wizard of Oz. ET was a wonderful success, and we are hoping this movie will charm the children as well. They are a wonderful audience, and not one child was sent from the "theatre" in disgrace!

Wednesday is International feast. This is a yearly thing we do at school to celebrate the study of different countries and areas of the world. It's strictly volunteer. If you are interested in joining us, please plan to bring a dish we don't commonly call American. Make it for about 6 people, and bring you and your dish to school on Wednesday about Noon. Please let me, Miss Judy, know if you are going to join us. I am making curried chicken; I think Mrs. St. Louis is making poppy seed chicken - I think Miss Kelly is bringing a fruit pizza, and not sure what Miss Amy is making. It is always fun to see the children pick their lunch. I will have hard boiled eggs and fruit as well for the kids to eat.

It's going to be cold and snowy this week. Please send your child in regular shoes unless it snows. Please watch for school delays and closings. Please send your child in LONG sleeves. Short sleeves are summer wear and children are cold. If you must send your child in summer clothes, please send a winter garment like a sweatshirt along with him so that he won't be cold all day.

This weekend, Miss Molly's dog had puppies. I was fortunate to watch one of the little guys be born, and it was wonderful. I watched Miss Molly give birth to all three of her children, and I can only say it is a breathtaking experience to see new life come into the world. The little puppies are brown, brown and white, and black and white; they have heads like little walnuts. Mother is doing well and seems to love her puppies.

Have a brilliant day!
