Hello Faith North Community,
The Silent Auction has just ended and there are many happy winners. Over all, this fundraiser to benefit the 3rd graders Camp Surf trip raised well over $1000.00. Thanks to all of you that contributed items and services—-there were some very creative ones and to those of you that bid on items. A special thank you to Myriam Hernandez who organized and implemented the auction.
After a week and a half of tests, we pulled out the stops and had a blast at the first annual “Eco Fashion Show!” 30 children designed and constructed clothing items from used, recycled items. Many children sported dresses including a bridal gown crafted from plastic bags and a train of aluminum cans. There were hand bags, shoes, purses and hats. The winner, Abigail Bayless-Feldman wore a dress of woven magazine pages at the bodice that blossomed into a skirt made from veggie chip bags. Her necklace made of flip tops from pop cans and her earrings made of flattened bottle caps completed her green look. Abigail will be featured on the front page of May’s Montessori Messenger.
Please remember to attend this week’s parent education evening. The staff will give us an overview of only a part of the Montessori mathematics curriculum, geometry.
All the best!
Susan Engdall
