Friday, December 4, is Sweets Day at St. Christopher School. Please send in
donations of wrapped treats on Friday. At our assigned time, the children
will go down to Holy Family Hall to buy treats. Cost is 25 cents each.
Thank you in advance for supporting this "sweet" tradition here at St. Chris.
The children will be bringing home a form on which to write a Santa letter.
Macy's will donate $1.00 to the Make a Wish Foundation for every letter they
receive. Please send your completed letters to school by Wednesday,
December 9. Matthew's mother will deliver them to Macy's for us.
Thank you.
The Pauline Shop located in the shopping center at Welsh Road and the
Boulevard is hosting a Happy Birthday, Baby Jesus party on Friday,
December 11 from 4:00-7:00 PM, and on Saturday, December 12 from 11:00 AM to
4:00 PM. The party features picture-taking at the manger (costumes
provided), storytelling, birthday cake, balloons, coloring, and fun. This is
a great opportunity for the children to experience the true meaning of
Christmas.
The response for chaperones for our Babes in Toyland trip was overwhelming.
I picked 6 names at random from a container and notified those 6 parents that
they were chosen. Thank you to all who volunteered.
In addition to bringing their FILLED water bottles on Gym days, Mrs.
Giammaruti has asked that, for safety reasons, the girls NOT wear earrings on
Gym days. If your daughter has starter posts that cannot be removed, please
cover them up with band-aids. She also asks that girls with long hair
wear a pony tail on Gym days. Thank you.
Any child who goes out in the Walker line should be doing just that, walking
home from school. If you are picking your child up in a car, please use the
car line. Thank you.
Pretzel Money for the week of December 7 is due on Friday, December 4.
Cost is $1.00. It is not necessary to put your child's pretzel money in an
envelope. I collect this as soon as the children arrive. I feel that I am
just throwing your envelopes away and it is a waste. Thank you.
