Bonjour,
It feels like we’ve just begun but here we are in October, with oh so much happening! From Apple Picking field trips for les petits to Bike Trips and new Art classes for les grands, we’ve got a lot of fun things to share as well as some important reminders for the month ahead.
This newsletter includes an introduction to this year’s “Artist in Residence”, Zoe Bray! Zoe has started working with grades 1 and up, and will coincide her art projects and lessons with the IB units for each classroom. We’ve rescheduled a few showcases so that parents will have the chance to peek into the afternoon art classes and see what students are up to before also visiting their student’s classroom. Thank you for helping us welcome Zoe to the EFDM community!
Music is also back in full swing at EFDM! From Music Together with Linz for our youngest students to Peter’s General Music classes for our elementary students, music is once again filling our school, both indoors and outdoors.
Pick out your outfits, Picture Day it set this year for Thursday, October 8th! Sharyn Peavey will spend the morning taking individual, sibling, and class photos of the school population. It’s always amazing to compare pictures from just last year, and see how quickly these students grow! We hope you enjoy choosing a special keepsake from Sharyn’s website to remember this fleeting season.
As a reminder, Oct. 9th will be an Early Release day and will begin the October Vacation. A link to enroll in childcare camp for Tues-Fri Oct. 13-16 was shared with families who inquired– please let us know if you need a resend!
As always, please contact the office with any questions at office@frenchschool.me
Merci beaucoup!
Emily and Willy
