May 26

Our learning is not over yet though!  We have some fun projects planned for this upcoming final week of school, as well as a great field trip.

Field Day Pictures!

Movie Trailers: The students have SOAKED in this historical fiction unit. I loved seeing how their excitement fueled their determination and learning. As a final project, the kids created Historical Fiction Movie Trailers for their books. Click on the link and view these trailers in a Google Drive folder!

A Note from Nicole Kammeraad: Hello, I am planning a little celebration for the kids and Miss Snoeyink for Tuesday, May 30 @ 2:30 pm in the classroom. Miss Snoeyink would like to play Scattergories, and they will have a treat and drink while they play. Miss Snoeyink said a few parents could help with the groups during the game, but all are welcome to come! If you would like to come please let me know! I will plan to get a few ice cream treat options with no clean up (think: Ice Cream bars, sandwiches, etc). If there's an allergy out there (besides nuts - Eli), please let me know! Thank you, Nicole Kammeraad (nicole.kammeraad@gmail.com)

FINAL WEEK NOTES:

Tuesday - Yearbooks will be distributed.

Wednesday - Field Trip to Grand Rapids Public Museum.  We will be leaving first thing in the morning (8:15), so this is not a day to be late!  Please send along a sack lunch with a drink for this trip as well.

Thursday - Clean Up Day! Please make sure your child has a bag for all their desk materials and treasures. 

AND Water Battle (If the kids ALL hand in their homework, we will have a "pool toys" water battle in the soccer field. More details to come!)

Friday - Last 1/2 day (11:30 dismissal)!  Please look for your child's baton to come home this day as well.  You will need to hang on to that and return it to your 5th grade teacher when you come back to school in August.

Lunch Accounts: To deposit lunch money into the meal magic portal, there is a new site address: hollandchristian.familyportal.cloud 

Everything will look the same, you won't have a drop down for the school site. Thank you for taking care of your balances!  Have a great summer!

HC Football Family Fun Night for 3rd-8th graders (Fall 2023 grades): This is a free event on Tuesday, May 30 from 6:30-8PM at HCHS Football Stadium for current 2nd thru 7th graders who are interested in playing football next Fall at Holland Christian. Whether you are just curious about playing or all-in, come on out for a fun night of knockerball, dodgeball, air force football, and ice cream sundaes.  This is a fun way to meet the coaches, players, and parents who are involved in HCS Football at different levels.  Kids will be split by age group for competitions (2nd/3rd, 4t/5th, 6th/7th). Parents are encouraged to attend at the end of the event as there will be a time of Q&A with the coaches, staff, and players.  We hope to see everyone there, Go Maroons!!!
