Blue Fiske Falcon
Dear Fiske Families,
Thank you to all the parents, teachers, TAs, custodians, and office staff who worked together to make the Fisketastic Day of Play such a wonderful experience for our children. Thank you to Cherry Poulicakos for organizing the volunteers and Ceida Chan for providing the tape for each classroom. At the end of the day there were jetpacks, arcade games, ping pong tables, dog and cat houses, animal shelters, sky malls, helpful robots, mini houses and a porta potty. Children worked together to develop their ideas and create items to make the world a better place. Don’t forget to ask your child/children how they worked together with their group to make a creation that will make the world a better place.
