Lower
School Newsletter from Wade Putnal
October 3, 2019
Our mission at First Presbyterian Day School is to
educate and equip students
to change the world for God’s glory.
LIBRARY NEWS:
If you
participated in the Birthday Book Club this year, your child should
bring home that special book this week along with a “party in a bag”
treat. I hope your family will enjoy the book together and return it
in two weeks so we can put it on the shelves for everybody to enjoy.
Thank you so much for participating!
We are so
excited about our visiting author next month, Eric Litwin, on Tuesday,
November 5th. Have you returned your order form and check
if you would like to buy any of his 10 books and have them autographed during
his visit? All forms and money are due by Tuesday, Oct. 8, in
time for me to pre-order the books.
Your child’s
author visit will be greatly enhanced if he or she frequents the links below on
your phone or iPad. In these links, your child will hear Eric Litwin
reading his books, singing the accompanying songs, and even teaching the kids
the dance moves that accompany his songs and books. Please help your
child be the star singer and dancer at Mr. Litwin’s presentation!
