From the Principal’s Office
As Ghosts, Goblins, & Witches begin to make their appearance, we are discovering that October has arrived! Soon the days will become shorter, the nights will grow longer, and that crisp fall air will finally set in. October is truly one of my favorite months because it is now when we finally notice the changing season of autumn and wait in anticipation of the upcoming holidays.
October also marks one of Merryhill’s most frightfully exciting events, our “Trick or Trunk!” Mark your calendars for Tuesday, October 31st and join us for Trick or Treating fun. The children are encouraged to come in costume and trick or treat bags will be provided for all of the children. Everyone is invited to attend. If you would like to volunteer for this spooktacular event, please sign up in the lobby.
Our Fall Festival will also be held this month! Save the date for Saturday, October 14th for tons of Fall Fun! Robo Band will be here for Halloween Fun. We will also have games to play, food to eat and of course, our raffle! Check with your child’s teacher about raffle item donations.
Each year the Principals of all the Nobel Learning Community schools get together for our annual Principal’s Conference. I will be out of the office during the week of October 23rd for a week of training and recognition. Please see Miss Terrie for any questions you may have.
Happy Haunting!
Lisa Norris – Principal

Trick or Trunk
Tuesday, October 31st
It’s time for our annual “Trick or Trunk” activity! Each year we ask for parents to volunteer to decorate the trunks of their cars and provide treats for the children. The trunk decorations can be anything you choose – be creative! Treats can consist of anything from a piece of candy (no peanut items, please!) to a small trinket.
We encourage you to dress your children in their Halloween costumes (optional, of course!) and then during our morning hours we will go “trick or trunking” in our parking lot.
Every year, this event is a huge success and we continue to look forward to “spooktacular” trunk decorations and the fabulous costumes worn by our parent volunteers.
Please sign up in the office if you would like to volunteer your trunk for “Trick or Trunk” at Merryhill.
The fun begins promptly at 10:00 am and all parent volunteers should plan on arriving at school at around 9:15 to set up. We will direct you where to park for the event.
