Dear Parents,
Grade 4 has been given the opportunity to lead the assembly on January 30th at 12:30. Hero’s Day iscelebrated in January as well, so we have decided to focus our assembly on heroes (What does it mean to be a hero? Who can be a hero? How can we be a Hero?)
We will be performing a short skit entitled ‘Moses’ Helping Hands’ as well as singing ‘We Are the World’. We chose the song ‘We Are the World’ because the message is centered on everyone doing their part to help others.
I hope you will be able to attend this very special and very exciting assembly. Please let me know if you have any questions, or if you will be able to assist on this day.
Thanks again for all that you do.
Sincerely,
Ms. Suckoo
