Recent Happenings

It has been an exciting two weeks at After School Club. Last Monday we took a field trip to the Little Bear Bottoms Corn Maze and this Monday was parent night. Each were such a success thanks to you parents and your amazing children!

Even though we felt like penguins on the arctic tundra at the corn maze (snow in October felt completely au-natrual for Cache Valley) we still had loads of fun playing in the corn and on the HUGE straw stack castles.

Parent night was one of the most successful yet! We had a great turnout. It was so great to see the students of ASC swelling with such pride for their parents. We loved sharing part of your halloween fun with you. We hope you have more fall fun in the next two days and are looking forward to seeing you again, which, let's be honest, will probably be tomorrow.

Be safe and stay happy!

Parent Night

Family and Friends of ASC!

Mark your calendars for the evening of Monday October 29th at 5:30 for Wilson After School Club's parent night. The activities will start promptly after ASC at 5:30. Bring your inner artist for the pumpkin painting contest and bring your appetite for some homemade root beer and doughnuts. Prizes will be given for the best pumpkins, so bring your A-game. Your children have a surprise in store for you that they're working on even as I type!

If you have any questions or concerns please contact Wilson ASC at (435)757-7760 or at wilson.afterschoolclub@gmail.com.

Thank you for your continued support of After School Club! We will see you at Parent Night!

October Updates

October is off to a great start! We just wanted to clear up some confusion about days off the next couple weeks. There will be no ASC this Friday the 22nd or ALL of next week, the 15th-19th. Original calendars read that we would hold ASC those days, but changes were made to the district-wide calendar.

Also, we have a field trip coming up soon. Because of the calendar changes we are sending the field trip form home today in hopes of getting them back tomorrow. If your child forgets the permission slip or for some reason you can't return the form by tomorrow, please send them to the office during the school day next week so the ASC staff has access to them.

We will be taking the bus to the Little Bear Bottoms Corn Maze on Monday the 22nd. If field trip forms are not brought back to school by Tuesday the 16th, which is a half-day of school, your child will not be permitted to come on the field trip. Verbal or written permission, on any paper other than the field trip form, will not be accepted. A parent signature must be on the official slip for your child to participate.

Thank you for your continuing support of after school club. If you have any concerns or problems please contact us at (435)757-7760 or wilson.afterschoolclub@gmail.com.

Field Trip Photos

Late September fall colors of Logan Canyon.

 The Stoke's Nature Center field trip last Friday was a great success. It seemed that the fall sunshine and leaves were shining just for us. The students enjoyed a nice walk along the Logan River and then had a chance to explore the Nature Center. Our nature guide, Louise, taught us all about the changes that are happening in the environment during this autumn season. Endless flora and just a bit of fauna made our first field trip of the school year the best one yet!

Please remember to pick up an October calendar/newsletter. Take note the days off this month, particularly this Friday, the 5th. Have a great weekend and thanks again for your support of after school club!

Field Trip Today!

Parents! It's time for our first field trip and boy are we excited. We will be leaving the school on the bus today promptly at 3:40 and traveling to the Stoke's Nature Center which is about a five minute drive up Logan Canyon. The center has a great program planned for us that will include a beautiful walk through the fall colors. Please note that we may not be back to the school until about 5:10 or 5:15 and plan your pick-up time accordingly.
We'll see you tonight!

Welcome Back to ASC

We know, we know. The blog banner still says it's the 2011-2012 school year. Don't worry though, it's another one of those things on our on going to-do list for the 2012-2013 school year that we are SO excited for. The month of September has already flown by, much like our summer flew by. Speaking of summer, we had a great one! Did you? We sure hope so.

Thanks for getting your children registered in such a timely manner. We have a full house this year at ASC and even some new teachers too. We look forward to seeing around the halls of Wilson and will be bringing you more important updates in the weeks to come. Watch for our October calendar and remember our field trip to Stokes Nature Center this Friday.

We'll leave with you some words of wisdom given in one of our Monday Enrichment activities this month, "You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose." -Dr. Suess

Until Next Year

Parents!

Remember that tomorrow is the WATER PARTY! Please send your child to school with anything they may need for water day; swim suit/water clothes, towel, water shoes, and sunscreen.

This will more than likely be the last post of the year and we would like to take a second and say goodbye. Thank you for all your support this school year. It has been a privilege working with your children on a daily basis. We know that probably only a handful of you parents actually stay up to date with the ASC blog-and to you all, an extra thank you! The Wilson ASC staff has fun plans for summer and we hope you do to. We look forward to seeing you all in the fall when ASC starts again, and until then have a safe, fun summer and soak up some extra summer sun for us!

Sincerely,

Your Faithful After School Club Staff
