GSB's yearly bike rodeo was a success! Thank you so much to the bus drivers, Erin Michaud and Megan Verney who help to put it all together and to all of our other volunteers who helped to come out to make it a great day for the kids!
2nd graders learning about owls. Thank you Chewonki!
Did you know that catfish have over 100,000 taste buds all over their bodies? Our kindergartners made catfish barbels (whiskers) and tried a taste test to distinguish between sweet, sour, salty and plain water flavors.
Reminder that the Bike rodeo is tomorrow! We are excited for K-3 to practice their safe riding skills through the course that our amazing Bus Drivers have designed.
3rd graders will even have the opportunity to try out an off course, trail ride with a special volunteer and Mr. Sal! Don’t forget to have your guardian fill out the google form that allows you to do this that was sent home, if you are a 3rd grader.
May 25th will be a great day and if you would like to volunteer please contact Ms. Erin, emichaud@aos93.org
First graders had a great time visiting Old Fort Western in Augusta. We were able to learn a lot about life long ago!
Coming up tomorrow - Kids Being Kids Day for 6th & 7th grade!
As we’re wrapping up the year, we want to bring back some childhood experiences for our older students as well as strengthening our school community with students and staff alike. We will get messy outdoors while playing field games, tie-dying, slime making, splatter painting, animal snuggling, walking over to Shell Middens, and more! We ask that all of the students involved wear clothes that can get dirty as we’re bound to make a mess and have tons of fun!
- 6/7th grade (including Ms. Jen’s 5th graders) on May 24th
