Hello Families of Santa Fe Waldorf 5th Graders,
And just like that, we’re approaching the end another terrific Story Gathering season.
Thank you for reading the scheduling notes below.
4/28/12 AM Grandparents Day: 10 - 11:30 AM.
Lifesongs will be a part of the 5th grade Grandparents morning in Peter’s classroom. We look forward to introducing and involving your child’s grandparent to the Story Gathering process.
4/28/12 PM Culminating Event: 6:30 PM - 8:15 PM.
Location was changed from the High School to Santa Fe Care Center, 635 Harkle Road. http://www.santafenursing.com/map-to-location/ It can be a bit tricky to find, as it’s behind the Residence Inn off of Galisteo - and requires a right turn as you are traveling South on Galisteo away from downtown. If you access Galisteo heading North, you’ll need to do a u-turn in the Residence Inn lot. Please car pool if possible as parking will be tricky and the lot will likely be full - there are side lots on the right and left of the main entrance. Please arrive by 6:30 PM and we will do our best to wrap up by 8:15PM and guarantee a firm end by 8:30PM (depending on the length of the individual group presentations). Students and volunteers will greet you upon arrival and lead you to the outdoor courtyard beyond the dining room where we will eat a pizza and salad dinner and mingle with one another and our Lifesongs elders. Once the other residents have finished their dinner in the dining room, we will set it up and move in to enjoy the pods’ reflections of their experience together this season. Thank you (humbly as it’s short notice) for bringing a desert to share.
