Make a Wish
Tomorrow we are helping make the dreams of a little boy come true.
A 5 year old boy named Joe Joe has Neuroblastoma and is currently in remission. His request to the Make A Wish Foundation was to be a farmer for a day. We have been asked to help provide a special day for him by cheering him on.
Tomorrow afternoon, Thursday, May 2nd, Joe Joe will be coming to Waterloo. (He also has a twin brother who will be with him.)

Joe Joe loves pink and purple. They asked if students would wear pink and purple that day. Or the students can wear a farmer hat/ clothes.
In class we all made signs to cheer him on and help make his day special.
This is a wonderful opportunity for the students to participate together and do something special!
Here's a link to the television coverage it....
