"The education of our day is rich in methods, aims and social ends, 
but one must still say that it takes no account of life itself."
—Maria Montessori, The Absorbent Mind

Field Day at Four Corners Montessori is all about fun! 
Students rotate from one exciting station to the next. Pre-primary/Lower Elementary will go in the morning, and Upper Elementary/Middle School will go in the afternoon. 
Students should bring a reusable water bottle to keep themselves hydrated  throughout the day. Families are also invited to bring a picnic lunch to enjoy on the grass with their students during their regular lunch time.

Help is needed for ALL grade levels to make the events run smoothly. Parents can work one shift, or multiple shifts or stay the whole day!

A MESSAGE FROM YOUR PARENT GUILD

A few parents have asked if we have plans for a clothing swap/resale. In the past we have held a clothing resale on Field Day, but due to the coordination and manpower required to pull it all off, we always seemed to find ourselves short staffed for the actual field day events.

To switch things up a bit, we held a small clothing swap at the May Day event, and we plan to hold another swap on Meet the Teacher Night at the end of the summer. If you are looking to clear out outgrown uniform clothing in the mean time, it can be brought to the school where it will be stored until the swap next school year.

Alternatively, parents can join the uniform resale group on Facebook HERE.

For Parents Who Worry (Isn't That All of Us?)

"It's easy to look at your friend's child and compare. However, it's important to remember, we are not all alike! No two children are on the same timetable, even if they are the same age. Keep your expectations in line with your child's abilities. Change is constant with a growing child."
