Please read the weekly news letter which is sent home every Friday for important information and upcoming events. You will also find out what your child has been working on in kindergarten! September Reminders..... As we begin an exciting adventure together, I wanted to share some important reminders with you: Snack - We do not have snack in kindergarten at Brinckerhoff but please be aware that children are allowed to bring water bottles to school with them. Please place them in a small plastic bag to avoid leakage. Backpacks - please choose a moderate size backpack for your child that is easy for them to manage on their own. The only item that needs to remain in your child's backpack at all times is their folder. Folders - please be sure to check AND EMPTY your child's folder each night. This folder will also act as means of communication for us as well. Please place any important notes, etc. in your child's folder that need to get to school and your child will give them to me upon their arrival. October Announcements..... School Picture Day - Oct. 7th Field Trip to Rombout Fire Dept. - Oct. 13th Field Trip to Barton Orchards - Oct. 21st Fall Party - Oct. 29th
