Reminder - Family Luncheon 01.27.2011

To everyone who has RSVP'd, we look forward to seeing you at the school tomorrow, Thursday January 27, at 12:30 for our next family luncheon!  As you know, Debbie Proulx is leading the students in preparing wraps and soup, and we look forward to dining together.

Many thanks to Debbie for volunteering her time this month to this important on-going (and fun!) component of our Montessori curriculum - practical life skills. 

If you unfortunately can't join us but haven't already done so, please don't forget to send in $5 with your child to help cover a portion of the food costs.  We ask for $5 per student (even if no family members are able to attend or if your child doesn't think s/he will like what's being made) so that the children can continue to have this wonderful experience of learning about, working with, preparing, and trying various foods.

So far this school year, RiverRun students have enjoyed and learned so much by making:
  • assorted sandwiches with fruit, veggies, and Moon Cakes led by Nancy Adis 
  • both meat and vegetarian chili with rice led by Amy Poole 
  • a full Thanksgiving feast led by Teresa Foster 
  • an assortment of holiday treats led by Mary Kaye Sutton
  • and now wraps and soup led by Debbie Proulx

If you would like to volunteer your time by working with the children on a family luncheon, please e-mail wadis@nycap.rr.com to discuss and learn more about this unique and rewarding opportunity.
