Bonjour,
L’Ecole Française du Maine students made the front page of the Lewiston Sun Journal leading up to their truly magnificent “spectacle” at the Franco-American Center in Lewiston last Thursday! We are incredibly proud of all our students, whose stunning performance was the results of months of rehearsals and hard work. We would like to extend a special merci to everyone in our community who offered their support, be it by supporting students in their efforts, to all our families for assisting with logistical arrangements, and last but not least to our teachers for their dedication in putting together such a fantastic show! Bravo, tout le monde!
Families are reminded that participation in our community School Food Drive will continue through March 26th! Organized by Riley and Grades 3-4-5, this event was created as their class continues to explore the IB Transdisciplinary Theme of Who We Are through their unit on heroism, community and identity. Please drop-off your donation items in the glass entry of the school. More details and information posters made by the students can be found below.
This week, students in Moyenne Section visited the Pineland Farms Maple Sugar Shack to kick-off and prepare for Maine Maple Sunday. We hope your family will find a fun (and delicious) way to celebrate! A list of local participating farms can be found here. This spring is sprouting with new field trips and special presentations for all classes; details regarding specific school field trips will be shared from the office directly to parents. Please also check the calendar below for upcoming Showcases and chances to share in the classroom fun!
Although today may be the first day of Spring, Summer Camp sign up is already here! Summer Fun at EFDM is available to families of our current student body, those who may be joining us for the first time next fall as well as families not enrolled in our school-year program. It’s a wonderful transition to the school year and a great way for interested families to learn a little more about L’Ecole. Sign-up details are included in this newsletter.
For any questions or further information, please feel free to contact us at office@frenchschool.me Thank you for your continued support and involvement in our school community.
Warm regards,
Emily and Willy
