Hello Hardy
On Wednesday, we had School Picture Day. Picture retake day will take place on Wednesday, November 20th.
On Friday, we had our first meeting of the newly established Student Council. We are having all fifth graders participate with half of a fifth grade class meeting for one month at a time (during a sequence of Friday lunch recesses). Next month, we’ll start with another half of a fifth grade class, and continue until all students have participated. We will empower student agency by having students plan ways to improve Hardy.
On Friday, we had our first meeting of Classroom Buddies.
This Wednesday, October 9, is International Walk, Ride & Roll Day! Students and adults around the world will be reducing emissions by ditching their cars and walking or biking to school or work. Connect with neighbors and friends to bike together or set up a walking school bus. If you live too far to walk the entire way, consider driving part way and walking the final 15 minutes.
With e-bikes growing in popularity, the Town of Wellesley has put together guidance for e-bike riders on safe and responsible riding. Finally, we extend a big THANK YOU to the students who do their part every day by taking the bus!
On Walk to School Day, students who walk or roll to school put their name on the sign-in sheet at the front of the school where Mr. Guzzi will be, and get a sticker from him. If they are unable to walk or roll to school, when they get here they can walk around the school on the walking path to the back (where Zone 2 recess currently is), and then walk back to the front and sign in for a sticker.
And save the date for future Walk, Ride, & Roll Days this year.
Email Paul Guzzi for more information.
