Friday Update – April 10

Hello Arbor Families! 

We hope you’ve had a great week. Here are some dates to look forward to! 

  • Tonight is Bingo Night! Join us in the parish hall from 5:30-8 for Bingo, prizes, and pizza! 
  • Monday is a hike at Scott’s Run! Make sure students have their water bottles! 
  • Tuesday, April 14th is our Ice Skating celebration! Even though the day is supposed to be in the 80’s, it’ll be chilly on the rink. Please pack your child a coat, pants, and helmet. They will not be able to skate without these! We also recommend packing a helmet. If your student owns ice skates, they are welcome to bring them, but this is not required. 
  • Thursday, April 23rd is Arbor Performance Night! We have some fantastic acts in the works and we can’t wait to see you there! 

Please let me know if you have any questions! 

Kelly, Sara, and Shelby
