This spring we had several special events. First, we got a woodchip topping in January. The children waited patiently as they watched the woodchips get blown into the playground. When all was ready, they were given the green light; you can see their delight in the video. Needless to say, it was a fun experience! Then, in February we had our Valentine Family Social. The children made special treats and hot cocoa and everyone had a great time sipping and socializing at pick-up. In May we got our playhouse remodeled (by my son Drew) and we celebrated 45 years at our annual MMS Birthday Party. With games, prizes and food donated by ABO’s Pizza and Nicki Thebault (Francie’s mom) of Skratch Labs, and the children (who made tons of hummus!) a good time was had by all. We finished our year with a wonderful picnic and moving up ceremony. Each class prepared songs to sing and we had a rousing performance by our Angklung Band. At the end of our ceremony, each child walked over the bridge to signify their moving up in our school, to be mentors for younger students in the fall.
