Hi GMIS families -
UPDATE: Solution for Placemats; do you have a sewing machine?
If you attended this Monday's Orientation, you may have recalled hearing Vivi mention getting placemats for your child's to use at lunch. If you haven't purchased them yet, please hold off on doing so for the time being. GPO and GMIS are planning to help source and cover the cost of these for all classes to make it easier for everyone. We will be buying ~80 cotton dish towels from IKEA to use as placemats! These are easy to store and to use, and will be added to each class's laundry bag at the end of the week to be washed together.
However, the towel size (20" x 26") is too big for the tables, and we are seeking someone who is willing to cup them in half and sew the edges to a smaller more usable size (20" x 13"). If you have a sewing machine and can help to make this happen for the kids, please let us know! (message GPO in Konstella, or email gmisgpo@gmail.com or email office@gmis-berkeley.com).
