Halloween Fun at PES -
Early Morning at PES The rising sun and the cool air provided a foggy morning over the PES playground and field this morning. -

This week was fire safety week! Mrs. Towne's class learned about how to stay safe in the kitchen, and how to dial 911 in an emergency. We learned about how firefighters are community helpers. Ms. Sarah was kind enough to show us all her fire gear! -

Each morning, staff are ready and waiting to greet students and screen them before they enter the building. Staff report that seeing students first thing in the morning as they get out of their car or off the bus, is one of the best parts of their day.

Do you have sneakers, shoes or boots you are looking to get rid of? The Conval Community Dollars for Scholars Program is "running" a shoe drive through mid December. Partnering with Funds2Org, money raised from this fundraiser will help Conval Community Dollars for Scholars award scholarships to students. We have a collection box at PES for any of your slightly used, but still in good shape shoes.
This week, our friends from the Harris Center worked with our 3rd graders teaching about the weather. Ben King of the Harris Center talked to our students about wind, including what a compass is, how to find points north, south, east and west, how to tell which direction the wind is coming from, and how to tell wind speed using a Beaufort Scale. Our teachers and students took advantage of the great fall weather and held the lesson outside. This allowed for students to see examples of the wind viewing the leaves, branches, and trees.
The Kindergarten classes spent a lovely morning walking to the Post
Office and Putnam Park. Students mailed postcards to their families
and enjoyed a special picnic snack!

On Friday, November 19th at 8:45am PES held a Turkey Trot “foodraiser” in support of the the Peterborough Food Pantry. We collected canned goods and other non-perishable food items as students, staff, and families trotted (ran, jogged, or walked) 3 laps around the PES playing fields (its about 1 mile). Thank you for all of the donations!

Dear Families,
I hope this newsletter finds you well. In this season of thanks, I want to say thank you to this school community for allowing me the opportunity to work with your children. They are fun and funny, curious and creative, respectful and kind. It is great watching them learn and grow.
