            1^st Grade Water Fun – Get Ready to Get Wet!

Date:  Thursday, May 30

Location:  Eshleman Elementary School

What:  We will be outside having fun playing water games the last 1/2 of our day.

Details:  The kids will get wet! How wet they get will be up to their discretion.

Please send your child to school wearing a bathing suit.  Everyone should bring a beach towel labeled with their name.

Boys:  Wear your swim trunks and a t-shirt to school.

Girls:  Wear your bathing suit underneath your regular clothes.

We will not be taking time to change into or out of bathing suits.  Please send your child to school wearing a suit with clothing on top as listed above.

We will try to stop our water fun 15 minutes before school ends so the kids have time to dry off.  They will come home wet.  We will not be changing into dry clothes at school but they will put their street clothing on top of their suits to go to special and come home. 

We could use a few parent volunteers to help with this fun activity.  If you are able to help please contact me at Wendy.Lutz-Terry@pennmanor.net

We are also in need of filled water balloons for this fun day.  If you are able to drop off 2 dozen filled water balloons prior to 1 PM on May 30, please let me know.  The kids will be so grateful!

Thank you so much!
