MAY 21st from 11:10 -12:30 Walking Trip to Kiwanis Park
Our annual trip to Kiwanis Park for fun, food, and games is just around the corner. Please have your child dress appropriately for the weather, wear walking shoes, and sunscreen. Students will need a sack lunch unless a school sack lunch was ordered at the beginning of the month. PARENTS AND YOUNGER SIBLINGS ARE WELCOME.
SJ FIELD TRIP: FRIDAY MAY 22nd 9:00 – 12:30 PM: Our second graders have been working hard on their presentations and are excited to share information about some of the landmarks located in St. Joseph. Please see the agenda below.
*If you are planning on joining us on the field trip, please let me know.
*We are looking for a parent or two to help bring class snacks to our parade location between 11:30 - 11:45 a.m. Please contact me if you are available to help.
The plan for our trip is as follows:
8:45 Bus leaves Lincoln School
Our 2 classes will ride on one bus.
9:00 Arrive at the carousel for the presentation and rides
Student rides will be funded by our district. Parents do not need to pay if they want to accompany their children on the carousel. One class will ride the carousel first while the other class enjoys a presentation about Silver Beach Amusement Park. Then groups will switch.
10:00 - 11:45 Bluff Walk
Students will present information about statues, monuments, and other historical marks on the bluff. All field trip participants need to be respectful, responsible, and safe since we will be sharing the sidewalks with community members and other school groups.
11:45 Get seated for the parade-find a spot across the street from the Boulevard Hotel.
12:00 Memorial Day Parade
Students will sit on the curb, enjoy a snack and water while watching the small parade.
12:30 Return to school
Students will walk to meet the bus on State St. after the parade to meet the bus.
Students will eat their sack lunches when we return to school.
