Martin Cluster Community Service Project:

The Martin Cluster will be preparing meals for five families in our community who need some assistance during these difficult times.  This activity will take place during our house block on Friday, December 7th. We are asking students from each homeroom to bring in the ingredients and then we will use slow cookers to prepare the food.  The meals will be picked up by Parmenter on Friday afternoon.  Please help out by signing up for an item by going to Mr. Farley's website (instructions below).   The Martin Cluster appreciates your help and support with this project.

In addition to the meals, students will also have the opportunity to work with some "friends of our community" during this house block day.  Some residents from Sunrise Assisted Living and Traditions of Wayland will be visiting us to listen to some music, play games and tell stories.  Some of our middle school students will be visiting Kindergarten classes and will share a story and some crafts.  In addition, students will also be making friendship bracelets and origami boxes for children in the hospital, holiday cards for soldiers and sandwiches for the Salvation Army.  We are hopeful that these activities will enhance the students’ awareness of the importance of community service.

Thanks in advance for your help with this important project.  Please click on this link http://sites.google.com/a/wayland.k12.ma.us/farley/ to visit the sign up sheet.

Once at the site, please click on your child's homeroom teacher and select an item to bring to school on Friday, December 9th for our project.  The document will automatically update and save; however, you must wait approximately 5 seconds after you type for the changes to be officially updated.  If you have any questions or problems, please contact us.  We are all looking forward to our community service house block one week from Friday.  Thanks for your help.
