Reading Calendars

Please continue to be adding minutes to the December calendars while on break. The December calendar is due back to school by Friday, January 6th to receive the pizza incentive. January calendars will come home with your child after Christmas break. The goal for January, February, and March will increase to 500 minutes.

St. Malachy Foundation Auction

The St. Malachy Foundation annual gala is scheduled for Saturday, March 4th. Each grade is responsible for donating a themed basket for the live auction and a personalized item from the class for the silent auction. I am in need of volunteers to help organize this for the third grade. Please let me know if this is something you would like to help out with.

School Supplies

Please check with your child about his/her school supplies. There are students without scissors, missing red checking pens, and broken crayons. Please replenish supplies over break that your child might need.

FBLA Presentation

This past week Creston High School FBLA members (and former St. Malachy students) came to talk to the third graders about dental health. A book was read about having a loose tooth and going to the dentist. The high school students also discussed healthy and unhealthy foods for the teeth. Third graders cut out food pictures to put on a good tooth and a bad tooth.

Merry Christmas

I would just like to personally wish all third grade families at St. Malachy a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! Thank you for all of the gifts. I greatly appreciate you thinking of me. I would everyone has a safe and happy break. I look forward to school resuming on January 3rd.

Everyone sing Christmas carols in the gym after lunch.
