Thursday June 7th is Engineering Day for the 3rd grade students at South Row School. Engineering Day is an all day event filled with fun and interactive engineering activities for the students. Teams of 4-5 students will work together throughout the day to solve the challenges presented to them. We will need 20 adult volunteers (parents, grandparents, kind neighbors…) who can help chaperone these teams, facilitate their teamwork and/or help set up the activities. No engineering experience needed – just your enthusiasm.

If you would like to help for Engineering Day, please click here to complete the volunteer form fill and return it to school by Friday May 25th. Any questions? Please call Celine Gribbon at (603) 305-1940, or email: cgribbon@msn.com. (please type “Engineering Day” in the subject line.)

Author’s Day is coming on Tuesday June 12 from 1:45 - 3pm! This is a special event organized like a giant picnic outside on the field behind the school. On each blanket are seated a parent volunteer and four students, one from each grade level 1 through 4. The students take turns to read their work to the group on their blanket. It’s wrapped up with everyone enjoying a popsicle donated by the PTO. This is an annual tradition at South Row, greatly enjoyed by the children and the adult volunteers. Every student from 1st to 4th grade participates in Author’s Day. We need 100 volunteers to bring a blanket and listen to the children. In the event that we have extra volunteers, some blankets will have more than one parent. Parents and students are assigned a blanket number in advance. Please click here to complete the volunteer form and return it to the school as soon as possible and no later than May 25th. You will be notified of your blanket number and other particulars shortly before June 12th.
