I am aware we’ve been having a lot of plays recently, but the children have been working so hard on their adaptation of Thornton Wilder's "Our Town" and I believe this one will be really amazing, and almost certainly will go better than the last one.

The themes of Our Town—the transience of life and how we should live in the present moment—have resonated with the children of late, especially after yesterday's disappearance of Boo-boo, our classroom hamster.

I hope everyone will please come. As a new teacher and someone still getting to know this town, it would be really nice to meet some of the parents.
