Field Trip

We will be going to see A Bear Called Paddington at the theater in Troy on Friday, January 23, 2015. We are really excited about this trip. If you can drive for this trip please email me. (nferraro@pikelib.com) Movie tickets will be $6.50 per student/chaperone. Please send this money by Wednesday, January 21, 2015. Students will be able to buy concessions and should have pocket money to cover the cost of any concessions they would like. We will eat lunch after the movie and your child will also need money to cover the cost of lunch. The movie will start at 9:00 so we will leave school around 8:15 to give everyone time to buy concessions. We are looking forward to a fun day out!! If you have any questions please email me. Thanks and I look forward to hearing from you!!
