Good Afternoon Topsail Annandale Elementary Families!
This is Mrs. Wilson with your weekly update.
We want to remind all families that due to the Thanksgiving holiday, there is no school Wed. 11/23-Fri. 11/25. As Thanksgiving approaches, we want to let you know how thankful we are to have the privilege to serve your children everyday! We are so grateful that we have such supportive families and a supportive school community. We appreciate all of you giving us the opportunity to learn and grow with your children! We hope all of our Osprey families have a safe and enjoyable Thanksgiving holiday, surrounded by family and friends! We'll see you back in school on Monday, 11/28.
Our annual Holiday Concert at TAES is back! This year, we will have a performance by the Holiday Drummers followed by the Christmas musical, The Reindeer Whisperer. Something has upset the reindeer, and they refuse to fly. It's the day before Christmas Eve - who can help? The Reindeer Whisperer, of course!! Come see our 4th graders shine in this musical performance. All 4th graders will be singing the songs as our actors perform the story. Join us on Thursday, December 8th at 6:00 in the gym. We hope to see you there!
For over 30 years, the Community Holiday Assistance Program has served Eastern Pender County families during the Thanksgiving and Christmas Holidays. Families receive a coupon for a fully cooked Thanksgiving meal from Harris Teeter. At Christmas, families receive a gift card to a local grocery store and toys for their children through the free “Toy Shop” program. The program serves ages newborn to 18 (all school age children). If your family is in need of holiday assistance, please complete the online referral form, linked below. If you have any questions, or need assistance completing the form, please contact Dr. Lori Brown, School Counselor at TAES.
Here is the link to our school’s referral form. https://forms.gle/AkGofyn9pvXtxtQTA
