On Friday October 17th, PES participated in Jumpstart’s 20th anniversary celebration of Read for the Record. To celebrate 20 years of wonderful books, Jumpstart has chosen See Marcus Grow as this year's read! Students then went outside and planted daffodil bulbs around our school (just like Marcus helped do in the book) that they will be able to see grow and pop up next spring!

On Thursday October 16th our kindergarteners took a field trip into our very own Peterborough community! They have been learning all about community helpers, and during the trip, they got to see them in action. They visited the fire station, stopped by the post office to mail postcards, and enjoyed a snack together in beautiful Putnam Park. A big thank you to the Peterborough Fire Department for welcoming them in, showing them around, and sending them all home with our very own fire hats!

A group of students had a fun filled trip to Washburn's Windy Hill to go apple and pumpkin picking. It was a beautiful day and everyone enjoyed the outing!

A shout out to Bus#19 who brought a little magic to its riders this morning with some bubbles. Our drivers are all so wonderful in our district!
