Children in our PM classes or Pineapple 2AM should sign up and come to school on Monday, June 1st, during the allotted times above. We will guide you to the appropriate location upon your arrival, where you can wait for your child while they have their photo taken.
All other classes will be escorted by their teachers to their photo sessions. Please arrive at school at your regularly scheduled time.
We look forward to a great Picture Make-Up Day and appreciate your cooperation.
Farewell Sing – Friday, June 5th
Our Farewell Sing will take place on Friday, June 5th, at 9:30 am in the Church Sanctuary. All children (both am and pm) will come to school and be dropped off at 9:00 am. Pineapple Room and Little Green Room children should go directly to the playground. Blue Room children should go to the gym. All other children should go to their classrooms.
After you drop off your children, please find a seat in the Sanctuary. As a reminder, no food or beverages are allowed in the Sanctuary. At the end of the Sing, we will ask that all families remain seated while we dismiss the children. We will let you know where to meet them.
We will record the Sing and send you a link to view the video, so please feel free to sit back and enjoy. We ask that those of you who would like to take your own pictures sit in the balcony. We must keep the aisles and space in front of the stage clear for fire safety and so that the children don’t get overwhelmed.
Please join us in Beecher Garden following the Sing for watermelon, lemonade, and a celebration of our year together.
Lost and Found
Our Lost and Found bin is full!
Next week, we will set up a table in Beecher Garden with all unclaimed items. Any items not picked up by the last day of school will be donated to the Underground Thrift Shop.
☀️ Plymouth Church School Summer Reading Newsletter ☀️
Dear Families,
Welcome to summer, a time to slow down and enjoy a good book! Over the past school year, the children’s love of books has blossomed. They enjoyed looking at wonderful illustrations; turning the pages; reading new titles and rereading old favorites. As you plan for these summer months away from school, here are some titles to check out from the library or purchase from the bookstore. As always, happy reading and let me know if a particular book lands well with your family.
