Dear 5A Grade Parents!
I hope you enjoy reading this newsletter. I have put some important reminders in it for Camp Seymour. I hope you have a wonderful Spring Break and most importantly a Happy Easter! Ms. Semandiris
Camp Seymour Reminders
Depart: Wednesday April 30, 2025
- Behavior/Learning Expectations: Please take the time to talk to your child about camp. Remind them that camp is considered school, even though they are outdoors.
- Wednesday, April 30th: Arrive at school at the normal time. Have your child bring all bags to the school hall. * Please label bedding in a garbage bag with your child’s name! After this is done, have your child report to their classroom for attendance.
- Students and Chaperones: Please bring a non-perishable (Nut Free) sack lunch on Wednesday, April 30th. We will be eating lunch when we arrive at camp. Please do not include any plastic containers because we will need to dispose of everything after lunch. (We recommend that your child put their lunch and water bottle in their day pack and keep it with them on the bus.)
- Medication: Please have your child bring up all medication to the classroom. Medication should be in one plastic baggy with your student’s name on the bag. Make sure that everything in the baggy is labeled and in the original container.
- Departure: Parents are welcome to stay to help us load the buses. We will depart around 9:15am.
