| Dear Friend of Terraset,
It has been a week for
winners!
A winning night at
Back-to-School Night as parents and teachers met... often for the first
time!
A winning night for lucky door
prize winners... congratulations Cate Johnson!
A winning day at Whole Foods
Market... read on!
And more chances to win by
participating in the Innisbrook Gift Wrap Sale... every little bit
helps!
But most of all, you can be a
winner by making your Three4Me Pledge.
Just three hours of your time, anytime during the school year, and you
will make a difference!
There are two great
opportunities for you to fulfill your pledge in this bulletin. The
Vision and Hearing Screening team need assistance and more bodies are
needed for Thursdays in the Garden.

Vision and Hearing Screening
Volunteers Needed
The school
REALLY needs your help!
Each year Terraset tests the
vision and hearing of a number of students. This year 150-160 students
will be tested and the Health Room Aide needs help!
The school needs 10 volunteers
to help screen kindergartners' and 3rd grader's vision and hearing on
Wednesday, October 7th between 9:15am - 1pm.
The Health Room Aide, Gladelle
Hardenbergh, will work with six volunteers to do vision tests. The
Public Health Nurse, Mary Joan Shea, will work with two volunteers to
do hearing screening. The testing will be undertaken on the stage and
in the conference room, so other volunteers will help to keep the
children settled and quiet.

Last Weekend for Gift Wrap Sale!
This is the last weekend you
have to help your kids make some sales from the Innisbrook catalog and
win some prizes! The sale finishes on 9/30/09.
There are prizes from both
Innisbrook and the PTA, so every student has a good chance to
get something. Check out the PTA Prize List.
You can order in two ways:
- Online at www.innisbrook.com If
you enter the school number -- 109245 --
shipping is free but the items are delivered to the school.
- Complete the paper order form
and send it to school in the Innisbrook envelope, along with a check,
made out to Terraset PTA, for the total order value, and we will order
for you!
Check your Innisbrook pack for
full details.

Thursdays in the Garden!
We STILL need your help
If you are interested in
working in the school gardens please Sign-up Here
for Thursday in the Garden -- a great opportunity
to exercise, socialize, and beautify the school's landscape. The kids
can't do it alone and the grounds committee desperately need help.
Thanks to the Stobie family
for helping to move some of the mulch from the side of the
school up to the Butterfly Garden. However, there is still more to
move. Please contact Faye
Codding if you can help -- any
time of the day works for this project.

A
Big Thanks To Whole Foods Market!
On
Wednesday, September 23rd, volunteers from Terraset ES, and other
elementary schools in the area, managed a small booth at Whole
Foods Market in Reston to talk to customers about the School Lunch Revolution, a
program from Chef Ann Cooper that encourages healthy
eating in our schools.
We were very happy to see a
number of our teachers and parents shopping at the store. We were also
very happy with the outcome. Whole Foods
Market committed to donating a portion of their net takings
for the day to each participating school and as a result, has donated $1,081.97
to Terraset PTA.
In addition, Whole Foods
Market donated a wonderful door prize for Back-to-School Night -- an
Italian Dinner Basket valued at $100. Cate Johnson was
the lucky winner!
Thank you Whole Foods!
