E&C Greek Feast

Greek Feast - a highlight of the 3rd grade year! 

fun to be with these two! 

What a fun celebration! 

First day of 5th and 3rd grades!!

We didn't do any easing into the start of school mornings and instead just went cold turkey - from sleeping until 8-9am to getting up to the alarm at 6:30. 

The kids ROCKED it! 

Charlie is entering 5th grade with Mr. Kolarski and Ellie and Claire are going into 3rd with Miss Jones. 

Claire all ready! 

Ellie all ready! 

Morning pictures!

Huge 5th Grader! 

Beautiful 3rd graders - Claire - Ellie.

Love these 3! Getting so big!

so claire - this sums up the adjustment to 3rd grade. 

 

RIP these clips. I loved these and they officially didn't want to wear them today. 

this funny picture has to be included as Ellie put this little thing together and left it on the table for us to find. So funny!  

So thankful for another year at The Oaks! 

End of School!!!!

Kids started doing a little golf night at the public course. Has been an easy way to introduce a life sport. 

Just need to remember my gorgeous flowers!

Last uniform day for 2018! June 14th - Friday at the Oaks everyone comes in play clothes. The entire school pitches in and cleans all the classrooms. every desk/table/chair is taken outside and sprayed and scrubbed and dried. Every bit in the classrooms gets cleaned and I love the example of the big kids helping get everything washed. The parents pitch in and then we have a large pizza lunch. So this was the last uniform day. 

Claire wasn't the happiest. 

last day of 3rd and 1st grade!!! I can't believe it. So proud of all their hard work this year! 

Oaks Winter 2018

Q3 report cards were awesome for the kids. The stuff the teachers write about the kids is amazing.

Charlie was assigned Odysseus in The Odyssey - his 3rd grade play.  First off - this is the set for the 3rd grade play! So many moms made things!! It was insane. 

I knew Charlie had a big part, but I didn't realize until I was there how BIG of a part it was. He was in every scene. It was the first time I was completely BLOWN away at his performance. Normally I see his presentations or speech meets many time and we work things so when I see it presented it seems pretty normal. 

This we did a few run through with the lines, but never had the whole thing so just went it and were wowed! Tom and Laura were able to be at the play which was so special for Charlie. 

the girls got to watch him and were so proud! 

Charlie and Brendan

Valentine's Day Bill brought home flowers for all of the girls!

 The kids were recognized for memorizing their next Proverbs. Ellie and Claire have memorized Proverbs 1 and Charlie has completed Proverbs 5 & 6!
