You've Got Mail...another student guest post

The Fox Hill Post Office Returns This Month!

As you may have heard, the annual arrival of the Fox Hill post office has happened this month! What happens during this special time is all of our fellow fifth graders get together to deliver the mail that all of the students from around the school write to their friends and family. Delivering a letter is very simple, you just write the student’s name, their address, and our zip code and you put it in our mailbox found in the center of each pod, but beware! If you fail to put on the address, the name, or if you write messy, the letter will not be sent and you will never be able to talk to that person! You must also write quickly because this event only lasts for a limited time only so start writing! I really hope you enjoy this annual event at Fox Hill School, and happy writing!

We also encourage parents to write to their children. There are supplies and a mailbox in the lobby! 

Thanks to Jonathan B. for this post.

YARD SALE COMING!!!

The school yard sale is coming to help the Amur Leopard. The fifth grade voted on assisting Amur Leopard conservation. Now, the fifth grade Kindness Committee is working on getting the yard sale organized with IMovies for awareness and scheduling times for the yard sale. The main reason for the Kindness Committee choosing the Amur leopard was because of its population. There are only about 50 left in the world. The yard sale money will be sent to WWF (World Wildlife Foundation) who will use the money to help Amur Leopards and the conservation sites where they live. People will bring in belongings that are gently used and unwanted to the Kindness Committee. Students and parent volunteers will then put the belongings in the yard sale for others to buy.  The yard sale is this Friday, so please send in items and or money to shop!

Here is an important announcement written by Jackie B.....

Who said “Yard Sale?”

    I said yard sale! Or, well a “yard sale.” The fifth grade Kindness Committee has chosen an animal to raise money for-the Amur Leopard-and we have a great idea to raise money for it. A “yard sale!” Our yard sale will be located in the Fox Hill cafeteria on Friday, February 12th. It lasts one day only. Fifth graders families-you included-will donate things to our yard sale by February 12th, and we will prepare the items for the sale. Please, do not bring in worn out items, or broken items. Bring in new things, or unused. We recommend things like…

• Toys
• Games
• Books
• School Supplies
• Clothing

    If you have anything listed above in good condition, we urge you to bring them in! Other grades will come to the sale and buy some of the things, and the money we get will be used for the critically endangered animal.

    Please help us out and contribute to our “yard sale.” We can bring the low numbers of 57 Amur Leopards left in the wild to 75! We just need your time, effort and help.

    Thank you for taking time out of your day to read this.
