A WEEK OF CELEBRATION !

We had fun during Founders Week. 
We learned about the five women who found Bryn Mawr.

We had a wonderful tea party pretending to be a founder.
Ask me which founder I was!

Our Tea Party

 We loved being founders who gathered 
to talk about making a new school 
where girls could learn anything they wanted to!



Drawing pictures of the five founders in our storybooks. 
We learned how different they looked long ago. 









We went on a journey to see important people and find the Bryn Mawr Seal.


Visiting the portrait of Miss Edith Hamilton. 
She was first head Mistress of Bryn Mawr.
We each told her what we want to learn!
We had great ideas, reading, science, math
and all about butterflies!






We had a fun visit with Ms. Maureen Walsh. 
She is the Head of Bryn Mawr School.  
Our visit to Ms. Walsh was on 
Spirit Day.
She could tell how much spirit we had!






Sharing delicious daisy cupcakes made by 
Caroline's Mommy to celebrate fall birthdays. 





                                    Memories from our first fun Spirit Day!

                                                          Waiting and observing each day.

                                   We love being scientists, recording what we observe and recording                                                                            what happened to our caterpillars.
