EASTER PARTY!!!

Hippity, Hoppity Easter’s On Its Way!

Our Third Grade Easter parties will be on March 29 from 8:30-9:30! We will have an Easter brunch and will exchange eggs (same idea as Valentine’s Day). Students will need an Easter bag or basket.

Each student will need to bring: a small egg for each student in the class (19 Total).

The egg can be filled with a treat, such as wrapped candy, erasers, Hershey’s Kisses, etc. No candy should contain nuts.

Please be sure to tape eggs closed.

Room mothers will be in contact with parents to fill the brunch wish list. Please sign the bottom of this page and return it tomorrow if you are able to help with the brunch.

Thank you for your help with our Easter party! We are very excited!
